Ingredients
- 1 honey crisp apple, chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
- ¼ cup dried cranberries.
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1 egg, whisked
Instructions
- Combine the apple, cranberries, butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Lightly sauté for several minutes until the butter is melted and the apples are just beginning to soften. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly.
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Roll the puff pastry out. If it isn’t already roughly 11 inches by 11 inches, use a rolling pin to roll it out to achieve that shape and transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment. Place the brie in the middle of the puff pastry.
- Evenly top the brie with the apple mixture. It’s ok if some of it falls off onto the sides. Fold each corner of the puff pastry over the top of the brie. Then, fold over any other “corners” that were created during the process to make sure that the brie is completely closed in by the puff pastry.
- Gently brush the entire outside of the puff pastry with the egg wash, making sure to get in all the nooks and crannies.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and cooked through. Serve with an assortment of crackers, fresh apple slices or baguette. Enjoy!
