Baked Brie in Puff Pastry
Our easy Baked Brie recipe is an absolutely delicious appetizer that is perfect for your next holiday party! Everyone will love it!
Ingredients
- *13oz puff pastry trimmed
- 8 oz brie cheese
- 1/2 cup jelly
- 1 egg beaten
- serving suggestions: crostini crackers, fresh thyme, red grapes
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Remove the brie from the packaging. Use a sharp knife to cut off the hard edge around the brie. Then score the top by making horizontal slices and then vertical slices to make a criss cross pattern, about 1/4 inch into the top, set aside.
- Puff Pastry: Roll out the puff pastry with a rolling pin and trim to be about 8x9 inches on a baking sheet.
- Brie & Jam: Place the prepared brie cheese in the center of the puff pastry. Cover the top of the cheese with your jelly of choice.
- Prep to Bake: Fold the edges of the puff pastry over the cheese and jelly, covering it entirely. Put the beaten egg in a small bowl and use a basting brush to brush the outside of the puff pastry with the egg wash.
- Bake: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven to bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown.
- Serve: Transfer to a serving platter and enjoy by itself, with crostini, crackers, etc.
Notes
- Jelly: we used a red current jelly and it was delicious, but feel free to use any of your favorite varieties of jelly or jam.
- *Puff Pastry: we couldn't find a smaller pre-packaged puff pastry - we do trim it down quite a bit, so it doesn't overwhelm the brie, if you can find a smaller option then go ahead and try that - otherwise we trim this down to approx. 9 x 8 inches.
