Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 each (8 oz) wheel of Brie cheese
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 cup (chopped) pecans
- 1 sheet puff pastry sheet (optional)
- 1 each egg (optional, for egg wash)
- crackers or sliced baguette (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the Brie by gently cutting and removing the top rind. This allows the topping to meld into the cheese as it bakes. Set the Brie aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and Dijon mustard until well combined.
Fold in the chopped pecans to the brown sugar mixture.
If using puff pastry, roll it out slightly to ensure it wraps easily around the Brie. Place the Brie in the center of the pastry and spread the brown sugar mixture on top.
Wrap the puff pastry around the Brie, trimming any excess pastry. Pinch the edges to seal it completely. If desired, create decorative shapes with the extra pastry and place them on top.
Beat the egg and brush it over the puff pastry for a golden finish.
If not using puff pastry, simply place the Brie on a lined or greased baking sheet and spoon the brown sugar mixture on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the Brie is gooey and the puff pastry (if used) is golden brown.
Carefully remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with crackers or sliced baguette for dipping.
