Who doesn't love brie, right? It's creamy texture and mild flavor is perfect on crackers or smeared on top of crusty bread. And the perfect appetizer to add to your charcuterie board. Yum! This recipe is a bit fancy, but so easy to make. Simply top your brie with your favorite preserves, wrap in frozen (but thawed) puffed pastry, bake and voila. Your guests will be impressed.
Preheat oven to 350.
Thaw puff pastry 20-30 minutes before using.
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or foil. This one gets a bit messy)
Take your brie out of the package.( I leave rind on.)
Top brie with a few tablespoons of berry preserves.
Wrap brie with puff pastry. I use both pieces in the box.
Poke holes in the top.
Add several drizzles of honey to the top of the brie.
Sprinkle with sliced almonds. However much you desire.
Put in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden on top.
Take out of oven and allow to sit for 10 minutes before serving.
Cut into brie when ready to serve. I like to cut mine in this pizza slices and serve with a crusty bread or artisan crackers.
