  • Ingredients

  • 2 Honeycrisp apples, sliced
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 sheet of frozen puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 wheel of brie (812 ounces)
  • 2 tablespoons apple butter or fig preserves
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • Coarse sugar, for sprinkling
  • Fresh thyme, for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven
  • Set your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Roast the Apples
  • In a baking dish, toss the apple slices with butter and maple syrup. Roast in the oven for about 25 minutes until they become tender and caramelized.
  • Prepare the Puff Pastry
  • Lay the puff pastry flat on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place the wheel of brie in the center. Carefully cut away a bit of the rind from the top of the brie, leaving the sides and bottom intact.
  • Add Sweetness
  • Spread the apple butter or fig preserves evenly over the exposed top of the brie. Fold the corners of the puff pastry over the brie to enclose it completely.
  • Egg Wash & Sugar Sprinkle
  • Brush the pastry with the beaten egg to give it a golden finish, then sprinkle lightly with coarse sugar.
  • Bake the Brie
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden and crisp.
  • Finish with Apples
  • Remove from the oven and spoon the roasted apples over the baked brie. Garnish with fresh thyme for a touch of herbal aroma.
  • Serve
  • Enjoy this decadent dish with crackers or simply dive in with a spoon for a warm, gooey delight.
