Ingrédients
Main Ingredients
- 1 wheel wheel of brie cheese (approximately 8 ounces)
- 1 cup cranberry sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans) Optional if allergic to nuts.
- 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
- 1 egg beaten for egg wash
Instructions
Preparation
- Start by gathering all the ingredients. Ensure your puff pastry is thoroughly thawed, and preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to ensure it’s nice and flat.
- Lay the brie cheese wheel in the center of the rolled-out pastry.
- Spoon a generous amount of cranberry sauce over the top of the brie.
- Drizzle honey over the cranberry sauce and sprinkle with chopped nuts.
- Carefully fold the puff pastry over the brie, ensuring you seal it completely.
- Using a pastry brush, apply the beaten egg to the outside of the puff pastry.
- Place the wrapped brie on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
- Once baked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. To reheat, warm in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes.
