Ingredients
- 2 heets puff pastry thawed, they come frozen
- 8 ounces wheel brie cheese cooled
- 1 cup homemade cranberry sauce or canned
- ¼ cup raw pistachios chopped
- 3 tablespoons honey
- nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 F.
- Roll out the 2 sheets puff pastry sheets (thawed) over a floured, flat surface into a 10 x 14-inch rectangle. Cut the puff pastry sheets evenly into 24 equal squares.
- Spray a 24-piece mini muffin pan with Nonstick cooking spray and place the puff pastry squares into each one. Push the pastry down with your fingers to create cups.
- Cut the 8 ounces wheel brie cheese into 24 pieces. The brie should be cold, so it isn’t a sticky mess.
- Place a piece of brie into each of the pastry cups.
- Add equal amounts of the 1 cup homemade cranberry sauce over each one.
- Next, add a bit of the ¼ cup raw pistachios to each one and bake for 18-20 minutes or until they are golden brown and the brie has melted.
- Allow them to cool for 5 minutes. Drizzle with some of the 3 tablespoons honey, and serve.
Notes
- Serving size: 1 brie bite
- You may use crescent dough instead of the puff pastry. You will need 8 ounces.
- The puff pastry usually comes frozen, leave overnight in the fridge to thaw.
- You can use homemade cranberry sauce or store-bought that's freshly made or canned.
- Nuts: you do not have to use pistachios. Other nuts like pecans or walnuts can be used.
- Honey is optional if you do not want to use it, but it adds a nice touch.
- You can add a small rosemary twig over each one.
