Cranberry Brie Bites
Description
To make Cranberry Brie Bites, crescent roll dough is cut into small rectangles and pressed into mini muffin tin cups. Each cup is filled with a small piece of Brie cheese and a spoonful of cranberry sauce. When baked at 375°F until golden brown, the dough crisps around the melted Brie, which softens and becomes creamy, balanced by the fruity tartness of cranberry sauce bubbling on top.
The contrasting textures of flaky pastry and smooth cheese create an appealing bite-sized treat. These bites are particularly suitable as party finger foods or simple appetizers offering a combination of savory and sweet flavors.
They should be served warm to enjoy the melted cheese texture and enhanced flavors fully.
Ingredients
- 1 tube crescent rolls 8 ounces
- 4 oz Brie cheese
- ⅓ cup cranberry sauce homemade
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 F.
- Unroll the crescent rolls and gently press the seams together. Cut the dough into 18 rectangles. Place each rectangle into a cup of a mini muffin tin. Do not worry if the dough does not go up all sides of the cup.
- Cut the brie into 18 small pieces. Place a piece into each of the dough-filled muffin cups. Top each with about a teaspoon of cranberry sauce.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and the cheese and cranberry sauce are bubbly.
- Immediately remove the bites from the muffin tin. Serve warm.
