Baked Brie
Milky rivers of baked brie cheese ooze out of a buttery puff pastry, melting together with nutty pecans and a hint of brown sugar in this over-the-top party favorite.
Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 8-14 oz wheel of brie cheese
- 1 sheet store-bought puff pastry
- 1/4 cup pecans roughly chopped
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp dark brown sugar
- 1 egg for egg wash
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- On a lightly floured surface roll out puff pastry until pastry is large enough to wrap around the wheel of brie.
- In a greased rimmed baking dish or pie pan set puff pastry in the center and arrange brie in the middle. Top brie with pecans, brown sugar and black pepper. Carefully fold corners into the center as shown in the photos above and pinch to close.
- In a small bowl beat egg along with 2 tbsp water. Using a pastry brush, coat the outside of the puff pastry.
- Bake on center rack for 35-40 minutes, or until crust is a deep golden brown.
- Serve warm with crackers or fruit.
