BAKED BRIE WITH DRIED APRICOTS AND PISTACHIOS



Baked Brie with Dried Apricots and Pistachios image

Inspired by mincemeat, the dried fruit and nut mixture piled on the brie in this recipe includes warm spices like allspice and pepper, while a bit of vinegar keeps the sweetness in check. Prepared pie dough keeps it all wrapped together and bakes up golden brown and flaky. If you are feeling artistic, save your pie dough scraps and add some decorations to your wrapped brie using the egg wash to secure them.

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/3 cup dried apricots, finely chopped
1/2 cup apple juice
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon packed light or dark brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup roasted salted pistachios, chopped
1 round refrigerated pie dough (half of a 14-ounce package)
1 7- to 8-ounce wheel brie cheese
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Sliced apples and/or pears, for serving

Steps:

  • Combine the dried apricots, apple juice, vinegar, brown sugar, allspice, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until the apricots are plump and all the liquid has been absorbed, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool; stir in the pistachios.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll the pie dough on a clean surface; gently roll out the outer 2 inches of the dough to make the edges slightly thinner. Put the brie in the center of the dough and top with the fruit-and-nut mixture. Trim about 1 inch off the edge of the dough, all the way around. Brush the edge with some of the beaten egg. Pull the dough up and over the cheese to meet in the middle, folding and pleating as needed; pinch the dough at the top to seal. Transfer the wrapped cheese to the baking sheet and brush with the remaining beaten egg. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375˚ F. Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake until the cheese is golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool at least 20 minutes. Slice into wedges and serve with apple and/or pear slices.

Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 small fresh apricots, pitted and quartered
⅓ cup white sugar
1 cup almond meal
½ cup confectioners' sugar
1 egg
1 (9 inch) refrigerated pie crust (such as Pillsbury®)
⅓ cup apricot jam, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Roll out pie crust onto a baking sheet.
  • Toss the quartered apricots with the white sugar in a bowl. Mix almond meal, confectioners' sugar, and egg together in another bowl to create a paste. Spread almond paste on the center of the pie crust, leaving 1/2 inch of bare crust all around the edge. Arrange the sugared apricots over the almond paste. Fold the 1/2-inch bare edge of the crust inward over the almond paste and apricots, leaving the center of the tart uncovered. Crimp the edge down with a fork as you go around the tart.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is golden brown, about 40 minutes. Brush the melted apricot jam over the hot galette. Slice and serve.

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Pastry dough for a single-crust pie
2 tablespoons semolina flour
8 tablespoons granulated sugar
5 large black or red plums (1 1/2 lb), halved, pitted, and each cut lengthwise into 8 wedges
1 tablespoon confectioners sugar
3/4 cup crme frache or sour cream
1 tablespoon Armagnac or Cognac (optional)
Special Equipment
parchment paper

Steps:

  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375°F. Line a large (17- by 12-inch) baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into a 13-inch round. Transfer to baking sheet.
  • Stir together semolina flour and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and spread evenly over dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Arrange plums, skin sides down, in 1 layer on top of sugar mixture, then sprinkle plums with 3 tablespoons granulated sugar. Fold in edge of dough to cover outer rim of plums, pleating dough as necessary.
  • Bake galette, loosely covered with a sheet of foil, 40 minutes. Remove foil and bake until fruit is tender and juices are bubbling, about 5 minutes more.
  • Transfer galette on baking sheet to a rack and immediately brush hot juices over plums using a pastry brush. Dust hot galette with confectioners sugar (sugar will melt and help glaze galette). Cool to warm or room temperature, about 30 minutes.
  • While galette cools, stir together crme frache, Armagnac (if using), and remaining 3 tablespoons granulated sugar in a bowl until sugar is dissolved. Serve galette with Armagnac cream.
