When it comes to appetizers, it doesn’t get much better than brie. But instead of the usual cheese and crackers, I like to bake the brie in a golden, flaky warm croissant pastry with apple and fig preserves and you’ve got yourself a true crowd pleaser! This is by far one of the most low maintenance/high satisfaction recipes I’ve ever made and it’s so versatile. Try it by following my recipe below!
What you need:
- Flaky crescent dinner rolls (you can use the pillsbury brand or store brand, they both work great!)
- Apple and fig preserves (or any kind of preserve you want!)
- 1 medium size wheel of brie
- Optional: 1 egg for glazing
- Crackers and apple slices for serving
What to do:
Preheat Oven to 350 degrees. Roll out the crescent dough and split in two. Place the brie in the middle of one half and spread your preserves on top. Use some dough triangles to cover the brie and the jam, then use the remaining dough to wrap everything up. Whisk egg and brush on top for added crisp. Place on baking sheet and bake in overn for about 15 – 20 minutes or until golden brown on top.
To Serve:
Remove from oven and let cool for about 5 – 10 minutes. Serve with crackers, sliced apples and fresh figs!
Isn’t that super easy!? You have to try this recipe out for yourself and let me know what you think! It’s definitely going to become my go-to appetizer for dinner parties this fall! xo
