Categories     appetizer

Time 50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 (17.5 ounces) package frozen puff pastry, thawed
All-purpose flour, for dusting
One 8-ounce brie round
1 large egg
1 teaspoon water
1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1/4 cup sliced almonds (skins-on)
2 to 4 large Granny Smith apples, or your favorite fruit
1 lemon, juiced
1 French baguette
Fresh thyme sprigs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the pastry sheet on a lightly floured work surface and starting from the center of the dough, roll it out into a 10-inch square. Place the brie round in the center of the dough. Fold the dough up and over the cheese, pleating the dough to enclose like a packet or purse. Trim the dough, if needed. Flip the packet over, and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Whisk together the egg and water; brush the brie packet with the egg mix.
  • Bake until golden, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add the butter to a small saute pan set over medium heat. Swirl and cook until brown and the butter smells nutty, 4 to 6 minutes. Lower the heat, add the almonds and gently swirl the pan to coat with the butter and cook until the almonds are golden, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and place in a bowl so they stop cooking.
  • Slice the apples and place them in a large bowl filled with water and the lemon juice.
  • Remove the brie from the oven, place it on a serving board using a spatula and allow it to cool for 3 minutes. Meanwhile, dry the apple slices, slice the baguette on a bias and place them on the board.
  • Pour the almonds over the brie and sprinkle with the thyme. You can also drizzle a little bit of the buttery almonds over the baguette slices. Cool about 3 minutes and serve with the fresh apple slices and sliced baguette.

BRIE WITH BROWN SUGAR AND ALMONDS



Brie With Brown Sugar and Almonds image

This is my signature dish. I adapted if from another recipe. To ensure the rind of the cheese doesn't burst, don't preheat the oven. Put the cheese in a cold oven then set the temperature so that it heats up slowly. When I am carmelizing the topping, I leave the door of my oven slightly open and I don't answer the phone. My favorite way to serve this is with french bread but water wafer crackers are a good choice too. I use a fresh strawberry on top for a garnish.

Phyllo-Wrapped Raspberry Brie image

This Brie recipe is easy to prepare and can be tweaked to your liking. The crispy layers of the phyllo and the crunch of the slivered almonds is a game changer. I just love this recipe. This recipe is for the large 18 ounce wheel of brie. You can adapt it to the smaller wheel but let's be honest, Why?

Provided by shadowgirl...

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 40m

Yield 18 ounces

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup raspberry jam
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary (crushed) (optional)
1/2 cup slivered almonds
6 tablespoons melted butter
12 phyllo pastry sheets, thawed
18 ounces brie round

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or coat with cooking spray.
  • Combine raspberry jam. dijon, red pepper flakes and rosemary in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for approximately 1 minute on high.
  • Melt butter. Save 1 tablespoon for the end to coat.
  • Place a phyllo sheet on parchment paper and brush lightly with butter. Repeat this step until all 12 sheets are layered and brushed with butter.
  • Trim and discard the top rind of brie. Place in the center of the phyllo sheets. Spread jam mixture and slithered almond on top.
  • Bring corners of the phyllo up and over the brie. The top center of the brie wheel should not be covered with phyllo sheets. Use remaining butter on phyllo if need.
  • Bake 25-30 minutes until pastry is golden brown.
  • Let stand 20-30 minutes before serving.
  • Serve with favorite crackers, pears are delicious, or baguette slices.
  • I have also made this recipe in a cast iron skillet on the grill. Spray the cast iron skillet with cooking spray. Place the phyllo sheets in skillet. Place the brie wheel in the center and top with jam mixture and slithered almonds. I would put it on the top rack of the grill to let it cook slowly. If you want it quickly, place on lower rack but you have to keep a close eye on it. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do.
  • * Substitue: instead of raspberry jam you can mix together some peach and apricot jam with the same dijon and rosemary.

Tips for a Perfect Brie with Almonds

- Opt for a ripe, high-quality brie that is soft and creamy to the touch, with a slightly pungent aroma. - Use a sharp knife to score the top of the brie into a lattice pattern, allowing the flavors to penetrate more deeply. - For a crispy and flavorful crust, coat the brie generously with a mixture of chopped almonds, bread crumbs, and grated Parmesan cheese. - Roast the brie in a preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown, usually around 15-20 minutes. - Serve the brie immediately with crackers, crostini, or sliced fruit for a warm and indulgent appetizer or dessert.
