Description
An elegant appetizer featuring creamy brie cheese wrapped in flaky puff pastry, drizzled with honey, topped with dried figs and prosciutto for a perfect sweet and savory balance.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
- 1 (8-ounce) round brie cheese
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 cup dried figs, finely chopped
- 3 slices prosciutto, torn into pieces
- 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet into a rough circle about ¼ inch thick (about 12 inches in diameter).
- Place the brie in the center of the pastry. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of honey over the brie, then sprinkle the chopped dried figs and torn prosciutto pieces on top.
- Fold the pastry up and over the brie, pleating it to form a bundle. Brush the pastry with the beaten egg.
- Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Drizzle the remaining honey over the top before serving.
Notes
Serve warm with crackers or sliced baguette. For extra crispiness, brush the pastry with more egg wash before baking.
