Description
Scrumptious bites of melty Brie cheese paired with tart cranberries wrapped in flaky pastry, perfect for parties or cozy gatherings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package of puff pastry (thawed)
- 1 wheel of Brie cheese
- 1 cup of cranberry sauce
- 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash)
- Optional: fresh rosemary or thyme for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface, and cut it into 3×3 inch squares.
- Assemble the bites by placing a small piece of Brie in the center of each square and topping it with a spoonful of cranberry sauce.
- Wrap the corners of the pastry over the filling, pinching to seal, and make small slits on top for venting.
- Brush the tops of the pastry with the beaten egg.
- Bake the bites on a baking sheet for 20-25 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
- Garnish with finely chopped fresh herbs just after baking, if desired.
Notes
You can prepare the bites in advance and store in the fridge, adding extra bake time if baking from cold. Experiment with different sauces for flavor variations.
