Description

The BEST Baked Brie Bites recipe! So easy to make and the perfect for your next holiday party! Only 4 ingredients!


Ingredients

Scale
  • (2) 8oz packages store-bought crescent rolls
  • 8oz brie cheese
  • approx. 1 cup your choice of jam
  • garnish: fresh rosemary or thyme

Instructions

  1. Prep: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare a muffin tin by spraying with your favorite non-stick. Spread out crescent roll dough and pinch together seams. Use a pizza cutter to cut into 12 equal-sized squares. Cut off the outer rind of the wheel of brie cheese and discard (you can leave the top and bottom). Cut the brie into 12 equal-sized pieces.
  2. Layer: Taking one piece of crescent roll dough at a time, place over top an empty muffin tin and gently press down so the dough creates a cup. Repeat until all 12 muffin tins are filled. Place piece of brie cheese inside each muffin tin and top with a dollop of jam. 
  3. Bake: Place in oven and bake, middle rack, until golden brown (approx. 11-13 minutes).
  4. Garnish: Remove and add a small rosemary or thyme garnish. 
  5. Serve: Let sit 5 minutes. Pop out gently with a butter knife or fork. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Jam: I used Bonne Maman Blackberry Preserves, but feel free to use cranberry sauce, blueberry, raspberry, strawberry, peach, etc. 
  • Reheat: I popped them in the microwave at 50% for a few seconds and it worked perfectly! 
  • Brie Cheese: I only suggest cutting off the outer edge of the rind to remove some of the toughness, but feel free to not remove it OR to remove all of it – really a personal preference.
  • 350 vs. 375 degrees F: I tested these at both 375 and 350 degrees F. – both turned out – if you do end up baking them at 375 then I would start checking them around the 9 minute mark. At 350 they were softer and fluffier, while 375 resulted in the top parts being a little less soft. Again, either temp will work just adjust the cook time accordingly. 
  • Crescent Roll Dough vs. Puff Pastry: we only tested this using crescent roll dough, but you could definitely achieve a similar outcome using pieces of puff pastry in a similar manner – simply adjust the cook time, as needed.
