Baked Brie and Jam in Puff Pastry

Baked Brie and Jam in Puff Pastry

Christmas is next week, yay! I can’t wait to eat food (stuff face), drink wine (day drink), and hang out with my family (shenanigans) in a few days!

This recipe is great as a holiday appetizer, because it feels fancy and deserving of a special occasion. The warm and creamy Brie, flaky puff pastry, and the sweetness of the jam is an indulgent and delicious combination. I made this recipe on Thanksgiving in Madison at my sister’s house as a mid-day appetizer. (Hopefully my wine intake isn’t reflected in the pictures, hehe) I know some people are anti-appetizers on Thanksgiving, but I feel like it was far enough in advance of the meal that appetites were not lost 🙂

I usually make this with fig jam. It pairs really well with the creamy Brie and I feel like figs are kind of holiday-y. This time I made it with apple chutney and it was great! I liked that it was kind of chunky, so there were bursts of fruity sweetness. I think this would be good with any chutney or a red pepper jelly. I also usually make this with a round of Brie (or Camembert), but Trader Joe’s only had giant triangles, so we went with that!

And don’t hold back on the jam – really pile it on there!

This recipe has been a go to for me for the past couple of years around the holidays. I love that it’s not a fussy recipe whatsoever. It’s so simple that I’ve even been able to make it at work in the toaster oven!

Serving this fresh out of the oven is essential. I love cutting into this and the Brie-jam lava spilling out. It’s kind of like opening a present… a cheesy and delicious present  Does it get any better than that? Nope, it really doesn’t.
