Notes

Make sure your puff pastry is defrosted in the fridge ahead of time, as store bought pastry is always frozen.
You don't need to cut off the rind of the brie, as it will melt anyway in the oven.
If you're not into spice, you can switch the Hot Honey with regular honey or even jam or cranberry sauce.
While you can make the cranberry brie bites recipe in a muffin pan, we prefer a baking sheet.
Flipping the pastry and filing upside down creates a beautiful crust on the cheese which we LOVE.
Make sure to use the correct size round cutter and cut up the brie into the corect size. The pastry should be at least double the size of the cheese.
Egg wash is essential for a golden and crisp pastry.
Cool the pastries before attempting to remove them from the baking sheet. This allows the cheese to harden slightly.
You can use crescent dough for this. Something like those Homemade Dinner Rolls dough as well works beautiful. And if you're in the mood for a buttery appetizer, use our FOOL PROOF Pie Dough recipe!
While we love the Hot Honey or Cranberry sauce, you can use a fruity jam as well. Any type of berry jam, apricot or orange marmalade pair so well with brie cheese.
We LOVE our air fryer for reheating everything! Simple place them in a 350 air fryer and reheat for 4-5 minutes. If you don't have an air fryer, then place them in a preheated oven in a baking sheet, cheese side up. The oven reheating will take about 10 minutes.
To freeze this appetizer or make ahead of time: prepare the recipe and bake. Once cooled, store them in the fridge and reheat the next day. Or freeze them on a baking sheet, then place the frozen bites in a ziploc bag. To reheat from frozen, make sure you defrost first.
