This is a classic dish for any type of gathering, and one we always put out. Imagine a croissant filled with melted Brie cheese and sweet fruit and jam. That's what this dish is. It's a pull-apart appetizer that can be spread on toast points or eaten as is. It's one of those centerpiece starters that is the talk of the party. Puff pastry is a cook's friend. It's great for making quick pastries and even beef Wellington. We always keep a pack in the freezer.

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (8-ounce [224-g]) wheel of Brie
1 sheet puff pastry, frozen
3 tablespoons (60 g) apricot preserves
1 small Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and cut into small dice
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 large egg beaten with 1 tablespoon (15 ml) milk
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Using a large chef's knife, cut the white rind off the top of the wheel of Brie and discard. Put the disk into the freezer and at the same time pull out the sheet of puff pastry. Allow the puff pastry to thaw until it is pliable but still cold, about 30 minutes.
  • Roll the puff pastry to a 14-by-14-inch (35.5-by-35.5-cm) square. Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut a 1/2-inch (1.3-cm) wide strip from one edge of the pastry. Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place 1 tablespoon (20 g) of the preserves at the center of the pastry and then the frozen Brie wheel. Top with the apple and cinnamon, then dollop the remaining 2 tablespoons (40 g) of preserves on top. Gather the four corners of the dough, one at a time, across the Brie to enclose it completely. Tie a simple knot with the strip of dough to make a purse.
  • Brush the entire top and sides of the purse with the egg wash. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. If at any point the pastry seems like it's melting or too soft, put it in the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes before continuing. Make sure the pastry is well chilled before baking.
  • Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, turning the baking sheet halfway through, until the pastry is golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for 8 to 10 minutes before serving warm.

Categories     Cheese

Time 17m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

8 ounces round brie cheese
1/3 cup apricot preserves
2 tablespoons slivered almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F Place cheese in small baking pan. Spread top of cheese with preserves; sprinkle with almonds. Bake about 10 to 12 minutes or until cheese begins to melt and lose its shape. Serve hot with assorted crackers. Refrigerate leftovers; reheat before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a ripe brie cheese for the best flavor and texture. Brie is a soft, creamy cheese that melts well when baked.
  • Let the brie cheese come to room temperature before baking. This will help it melt evenly.
  • Use a sharp knife to score the top of the brie cheese. This will help the cheese melt more evenly and allow the apricot jam to penetrate the cheese.
  • Spread the apricot jam over the top of the brie cheese. You can use any flavor of apricot jam that you like. You could also add chopped nuts or dried fruit to the jam.
  • Bake the brie cheese in a preheated oven until it is melted and gooey. The baking time will vary depending on the size of the brie cheese.
  • Serve the baked brie cheese with crackers, bread, or fruit. You can also drizzle honey or balsamic vinegar over the cheese.

Conclusion:

Baked brie with apricot jam is a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to impress your guests and it is sure to be a hit. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give baked brie with apricot jam a try. You won't be disappointed!
