Description

These Cranberry Brie Bites are the perfect holiday appetizer—flaky, buttery puff pastry cups filled with creamy Brie cheese and sweet-tart cranberry sauce. With just a few ingredients, they’re easy to make and irresistibly delicious.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 8 oz Brie cheese, cut into small cubes
  • 1/2 cup cranberry sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional)
  • 12 tsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare:
    1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a mini muffin tin.
  2. Prepare the Puff Pastry:
    1. Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 24 equal squares.
  3. Assemble the Bites:
    1. Press each puff pastry square into a mini muffin tin cup.
    2. Place a cube of Brie into each cup, followed by about 1 teaspoon of cranberry sauce.
    3. Sprinkle with chopped pecans if using.
  4. Bake:
    1. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
  5. Garnish and Serve:
    1. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh rosemary if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For extra sweetness, drizzle with a touch of honey before serving.
  • Substitute cranberry sauce with raspberry jam or fig preserves for a twist.
  • These bites are best served fresh but can be reheated in a 350°F oven for 5 minutes.
