INGREDIENTS
- 1/4 cup of your favorite jam (apricot, raspberry, or fig work wonders)
- 1 round of quality brie cheese (about 8-10 ounces)
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (walnuts, almonds, or pecans)
- 1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed (if desired)
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- Sliced baguette or crackers (for serving)
INSTRUCTIONS
Pre-heat the Oven:
-
Set your oven’s temperature to 375°F (190°C). This will guarantee that your baked brie comes out absolutely wonderful and gooey.
Prepare the Brie:
-
If your brie cheese has a rind, you may either leave it on for a stronger flavor or trim off a small layer for a milder one. On a baking sheet covered with parchment paper, place the brie round.
Add the Jam:
-
Drizzle the brie with the 1/4 cup of jam. The creamy brie will pair well with the jam’s sweetness.
Sprinkle the Nuts:
-
Evenly distribute the chopped nuts over the brie that has been smeared in jam. Each bite will have an extra flavorful crunch from the nuts.
Wrap in Puff Pastry (Optional):
-
To elevate your baked brie, wrap it in a puff pastry sheet along with the toppings. Wrap the brie in the pastry carefully, sealing the top. Eliminate any extra pastry.
Egg Wash:
-
Beat the egg in a small bowl. Apply the beaten egg to the puff pastry (if used) using a pastry brush. The baked brie will acquire a lovely golden brown color as a result.
Bake to Perfection:
-
Put the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the dough is golden and the cheese is gooey.
Serve and Enjoy:
-
Transfer the baked brie with care to a serving plate. Prior to serving, let it cool for a while. Sliced bread or crackers can be used to provide a pleasing contrast of tastes and textures around the brie.
