Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 4 oz brie cheese, rind removed and cut into small cubes
- 1/4 cup cranberry sauce
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unfold the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut the pastry into 12 equal squares.
- Place a cube of brie cheese in the center of each puff pastry square.
- Top the brie with about 1 teaspoon of cranberry sauce.
- Bring the corners of the puff pastry up and pinch them together to enclose the filling. Gently twist the top to seal.
- Place the pastry bites on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the tops of the pastry bites with the beaten egg wash.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- You can use fresh cranberries cooked down into a sauce for a more homemade flavor.
- For a touch of sweetness, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup over the top after baking is delicious.
- If you prefer a savory bite, omit the cranberry sauce and add a sprinkle of fresh rosemary or thyme.
