Baked Puff Pastry Wrapped Brie w/ Fig Jam

I always have the hardest time coming up with easy appetizers (that isn’t a cheese board). I don’t know why this is such a challenge for me? I think it’s because I want it to feel homemade, but I don’t want to spend a lot time making it. My focus is always on the main course, so the apps should always be easy.

Can we talk about how easy and delicious this ooey gooey cheesy baked brie appetizer is?

It’s also so pretty and perfect on it’s own, and such a crowd pleaser! Your guests will think you spent way more time on it than you really did. Isn’t that the point? ????

Let’s go over the steps.

1) Thaw out your frozen puff pastry and roll it onto a parchment lined baking sheet.

2) Generously spread the fig jam on the puff pastry then place your wheel of brie in the center. Spread more jam on the cheese and sprinkle the whole thing with flakey sea salt.

3) Wrap that puppy up, brush with egg wash and bake to golden perfection.

I mean, can you even handle it?! It’s like a perfect little package just waiting for you to dig in.

That buttery flakey crust literally has me drooling ????. Serve it alongside some delicious crackers and call it a day.

Your holiday appetizer game just become so strong. ????
