Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 wheel of Camembert cheese
- 3 tablespoons cranberry sauce
- 2 tablespoons walnuts, roughly chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1 puff pastry sheet
- 1 egg, beaten
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly dust a clean surface with flour and roll out the puff pastry sheet until it is large enough to wrap around the Camembert wheel.
Cut the Camembert wheel horizontally in half to create two thinner rounds.
On the bottom half of the Camembert, spread 1.5 tablespoons of cranberry sauce, then sprinkle 1 tablespoon of chopped walnuts and half the chopped rosemary. Lightly drizzle 1 teaspoon of honey over the top.
Place the other half of the Camembert on top like a sandwich, then repeat the layering with the remaining cranberry sauce, walnuts, rosemary, and honey.
Gently place the layered Camembert in the center of the rolled-out puff pastry. Fold the edges of the pastry over the cheese, ensuring it is fully enclosed. Trim any excess pastry if needed, and pinch to seal.
Brush the beaten egg all over the surface of the puff pastry for a golden finish.
Place the wrapped Camembert onto the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Slice into wedges and enjoy the melty, flavorful layers!
