Steps:
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat, and drizzle in about 2-3 tablespoons of oil; once hot, add in the sliced onions along with a pinch of salt and pepper, and cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until they become deeply golden-brown and caramelized, about 20 minutes.
- Once golden, stir in the teaspoon of sugar, followed by the balsamic vinegar, and allow the mixture to bubble up and reduce, stirring to incorporate; allow the onions to cook for another 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently now, until jam-like and deeply browned; then, add the 1 teaspoon of thyme leaves, stir to combine, and remove from pan and allow to cool (you should have roughly 1/2 cup).
- To prepare the baked brie, lightly flour your work surface, and roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet to about 1/8" thickness, a bit larger than the wheel of brie (trim the puff pastry a little bit if it's considerably too large for your brie); place the brie in the center of it, spoon over top of it the cooled, balsamic caramelized onions, then fold the puff pastry sheet over top to cover everything, creating a little "package" with pleats.
- Place the wrapped brie "package" onto a small baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and very gently brush some egg wash over the puff pastry (avoid allowing it to pool underneath), and place into the fridge to chill for 30 minutes (or even overnight), covering lightly with plastic wrap.
- Preheat the oven to 400°.
- Once ready to bake, place the brie into the oven and bake for roughly 35-40 minutes, or until deeply golden and puffed; allow the baked brie to stand for 10 minutes before serving, to avoid it oozing out too much.
- To serve, add a couple of decorative sprigs of thyme, and surround the brie with crackers, sliced baguette, or even fruit such as apples or pears.

SWEET BAKED BRIE IN PUFF PASTRY
My favorite way of serving brie. I use a pretty fabric ribbon (must be fabric) to tie pastry with a pretty bow, before baking. Comes out fine and doesn't burn in the oven. Serve fruit on the side. I also make it with any flavor of jam. Blueberry strawberry or mixed fruit. For a shiny surface, brush pastry with an egg wash or brush with milk or cream...DIVINE!

Steps:
- Roll out defrosted pastry slightly.
- Shave top crust off of brie.
- Cook fruit with sugar and cornstarch mixed with a little bit of water to make a slurry, until thickened.
- Spray pan with pam and top with parchment paper. I use a pie plate. Place pastry on parchment and spread a little fruit on center of pastry just where brie will be. Sprinkle with brown sugar.
- Place brie on top and spread a little more fruit on top. Sprinkle with brown sugar.
- Pull points up to meet and scrunch together, folding pastry around brie, like a pretty gift. Brush with egg wash or milk.
- Tie around center with a pretty fabric ribbon.
- Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes.
- Let stand for about 10 or 15 minutes before serving.
- Serve with extra warm fruit on the side.
Tips:
- Use a high-quality brie. A good brie will have a creamy, slightly runny texture and a mild, nutty flavor.
- Bring the brie to room temperature before baking. This will help the cheese to melt evenly.
- Use a sharp knife to score the brie. This will help the cheese to release its flavors and allow the filling to penetrate.
- Be careful not to over-bake the brie. The cheese should be melted and slightly gooey, but not runny.
- Serve the brie immediately. It is best enjoyed when it is warm and melted.
Conclusion:
Sweet baked brie in puff pastry is a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with a creamy brie cheese, wrapped in a flaky puff pastry and baked until golden brown. The brie is then topped with a sweet and tangy sauce, made with cranberry sauce, brown sugar and orange zest. This dish is sure to impress your guests and is a great way to enjoy a special occasion.
