Ingredients
Scale
- 2 sheets phyllo dough, slightly thawed
- 8 ounces Brie cheese, cut into 1" bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup cranberry sauce
- 5 sprigs rosemary
- 1/4 cup pecans, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Spray a mini muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray and set it aside.
- On a lightly floured surface, unfold the semi-thawed phyllo dough sheets. Gently roll out the phyllo dough to soften the creases and cut uniform pieces using a pizza cutter into 9 squares for each sheet.
- Place each phyllo square in the greased mini muffin tin. Add a piece of Brie and approximately 1 tablespoon of cranberry sauce to each. Top with a sprinkle of chopped pecans and place the entire muffin pan onto a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.
- Remove the pan from the oven and take out the Brie Bites from the muffin tins while still warm. Garnish each piece with a small sprig of rosemary if desired, then serve immediately.
Notes
Make sure to keep the phyllo dough covered with a damp cloth while working to prevent it from drying out.
You can experiment with different toppings like walnuts or other fruit sauces to customize the flavor.
For a touch of sweetness, drizzle some honey over the Brie Bites just before serving.
