BAKED BRIE W/ PECANS AND BROWN
SUGAR
 
1-8 oz round of brie with rind intact
3 tbsp. brown sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans
1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
Granny Smith Apples, sliced
butter crackers or light crackers (for serving)

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Line a baking pan with parchment paper for baking. Spread out puffed pastry on a flat surface.

In a separate bowl, mix pecans, sugar, cinnamon.

Spread nut mixture onto the center of the pastry. Place brie atop the nut mixture. Fold pastry over the brie to enclose everything like a package and pinch the pastry closed so it is sealed. Flip pastry package over and place on baking tray with folds on the bottom.

Bake in oven for about 20-30 minutes or until the pastry is browned and golden.

Serve with crackers and sliced apples.

I have used this recipe many times and it is always a huge hit. It takes about 5 minutes to prepare and is wonderful for various social occasions. Note: it is VERY filling. Not usually a good idea to make it as an appetizer for a meal unless you want to wait a couple hours between courses.

Took this to SS Christmas party - it was super simple and a huge hit! I sliced Bartlett Pears, Fuji and Granny Smith Apples- alternating them on the platter around the brie!

This was delicious! I added a bit of maple syrup to the mixture, which made it even better. Just a note, I prepared this in my large toaster oven and it started to burn at the 16 minute mark. Keep an eye out since ovens cook differently.
