Cranberry and Walnut Baked Brie image

This is ideal for parties etc and is fairly simple to make. It can be prepared in advance and then baked when needed. I use the cranberry orange sauce from Recipe #274069 which is very easy or you can buy it ready made. For the pastry i use all shortening since it gives a more flaky pastry, if you like a more flavorful pastry you can use half butter.

Time 55m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 -2 tablespoon cranberry sauce
1 1/2 ounces walnuts
7 2/3 ounces brie round
4 ounces all-purpose flour
4 ounces shortening
1/4 teaspoon salt
ice water

Steps:

  • Pastry: Try to keep all ingredients as cold as possible, rub the fats into the flour and salt. until you get a bread crumb consistency.
  • Add just enough iced water to make a dough that comes clean away from the bowl.
  • Roll out on a floured surface to a narrow strip.
  • Fold in three, give a quarter turn so one of the open ends is towards you and roll out again. Repeat three times.
  • Cover pastry and leave to rest in fridge 20-30 minutes. Take care to roll away from you and do not break the air bubbles that will rise.
  • Spread the cranberry sauce over the pastry and place brie on top and top with walnuts.
  • Bring the edges of the pastry together at the top of the brie in the center and pinch together.
  • Bake at 375F for 10-15 mins or 350F for 25-30 minutes Take care not to overbake or the brie will become liquid and leak out of the pastry.
