Baked Brie with Dried Cherries & Thyme

Baked Brie with Dried Cherries & Thyme

BAKED BRIE RECIPE INGREDIENTS

• 1/2-lb. wheel of Brie (about 4-inch diameter), at room temperature
• 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
• 1/3 cup dried cherries, coarsely chopped
• 2 tsp. chopped fresh thyme
• 1 Tbs. unsalted butter, melted

BAKED BRIE RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS
Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 425°F.

Slice off the top rind of the Brie and discard. On a sheet of waxed paper or parchment, roll the pastry out to a 12-inch square and cut two 6-inch rounds from it. Put one of the rounds on a small rimmed baking sheet, sprinkle with half of the dried cherries and thyme, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edge, and gently press so they adhere.

Set the Brie, rind side down, on top of the pastry, sprinkle with the remaining cherries and thyme, and cover with the other pastry. Crimp the edges together to seal in the cheese. Brush the top of the dough with the butter. Bake until the pastry browns, about 20 minutes. Let cool for 15 to 20 minutes and then the baked brie is ready to serve...enjoy it !

Baked Brie and Red Pepper Jelly Wrapped in Phyllo Pastry

Baked Brie and Red Pepper Jelly Wrapped in Phyllo Pastry

Baked Brie Recipe Ingredients

* 6 phyllo pastry sheets, thawed
* 1/3 cup butter, melted
* 3/4 lb brie round, chilled (I use a triple cream brie)
* 1/4 cup red pepper jelly

BAKED BRIE RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2.Place brie on flat surface and with sharp knife, slice Brie in half horizontally.
3.(This is much easier to do if Brie is nicely chilled first).
4.Spread red pepper jelly on bottom half of Brie and then replace top half of brie and set aside.
5.Using a pastry brush, brush butter on first sheet of phyllo, place a second sheet on top at roughly a 30 degree angle, brush with butter, place third sheet on top at roughly a 30 degree angle from the first, brush with butter and continue until all sheets have been used.
6.
(The reason for placing the sheets on angles is that you'll end up with a larger surface which makes for easier wrapping and it also gives you a more interesting presentation as you bring all the sheets together).
7.Place Brie in centre of phyllo and gently pull all the sheets up and over the Brie, twisting closed at the top.
8.Arrange the sheets in the"twist" in various directions.
9.Brush entire package with melted butter.
10.Bake for 30-35 minutes.
11.Set aside for 5-10 minutes before serving.
12. Serve with crackers or thinly sliced baguette.
