I've had this appetizer at Mise en Place in New Hampshire as well as at a friend's house...I absolutely love it and was excited to try it myself! Turned out really well, and it was super easy to make.
Brie en Croute
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1/2 of a 17.3 oz package of Pepperidge Farm's Puff Pastry Sheets (1 sheet)
- 1 8 oz brie cheese round
- crackers, sliced apples, etc for serving
Directions
- Thaw 1 puff pastry sheet for 40 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Unfold the pastry sheet on a work surface and place the brie in the center of the sheet.
- Fold the edges of the sheet over and around the cheese.
- Beat the egg and water together to use as a wash to seal the sheet around the brie. Brush the seams with the egg wash.
- Place the brie seam-side down in a baking dish (that you plan to serve with), and brush with egg wash.
- Bake for 25 minutes until the pastry is golden brown. Let stand for 20 minutes before serving. Serve with crackers or sliced apples.
