Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the pastry sheet on a lightly floured work surface and starting from the center of the dough, roll it out into a 10-inch square. Place the brie round in the center of the dough. Fold the dough up and over the cheese, pleating the dough to enclose like a packet or purse. Trim the dough, if needed. Flip the packet over, and place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Whisk together the egg and water; brush the brie packet with the egg mix.
- Bake until golden, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add the butter to a small saute pan set over medium heat. Swirl and cook until brown and the butter smells nutty, 4 to 6 minutes. Lower the heat, add the almonds and gently swirl the pan to coat with the butter and cook until the almonds are golden, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and place in a bowl so they stop cooking.
- Slice the apples and place them in a large bowl filled with water and the lemon juice.
- Remove the brie from the oven, place it on a serving board using a spatula and allow it to cool for 3 minutes. Meanwhile, dry the apple slices, slice the baguette on a bias and place them on the board.
- Pour the almonds over the brie and sprinkle with the thyme. You can also drizzle a little bit of the buttery almonds over the baguette slices. Cool about 3 minutes and serve with the fresh apple slices and sliced baguette.

Tips:

- Bring the brie to room temperature before serving. This will allow the cheese to soften and develop its full flavor.
- Slice the brie into wedges. This will make it easier to serve and eat.
- Top the brie with almonds and honey. The almonds will add a crunchy texture and the honey will add a sweet flavor.
- Bake the brie until the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will take about 10 minutes.
- Serve the brie immediately. Brie is best enjoyed warm and gooey.

Brie with almonds and honey is a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to enjoy brie cheese and it is sure to be a hit with your guests. This recipe is also very versatile. You can use different types of nuts and honey, and you can even add other ingredients, such as fruit or herbs.
