Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package Refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 8 ounces Brie wheel
- 3 tablespoons Jam (apricot, raspberry, or your favorite flavor)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped pecans or walnuts
- 1 Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Water
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles as indicated by the perforations.
Place the brie wheel in the center of the dough triangles.
Spread the jam evenly on top of the brie wheel to cover the surface.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans or walnuts over the jam layer.
Fold the dough triangles up over the top of the brie, pressing gently to seal the edges. Ensure the entire wheel is covered to prevent leaks during baking.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush the egg wash evenly over the wrapped dough for a golden-brown finish.
Carefully transfer the wrapped brie to the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the cheese to set slightly and prevents it from oozing excessively when cut.
Serve warm with crackers, sliced baguette, or fresh fruit.
