Time 1h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 sheet puff pastry (from a 17.25-ounce box)
All-purpose flour, for rolling
1/2 cup fig preserves
1 teaspoon chopped thyme
One 8-ounce 4-inch diameter wheel of Brie, halved crosswise
2 tablespoons sliced almonds, toasted
1 large egg, beaten with a pinch of salt
Sliced baguette and apple slices, for serving

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll the pastry into a 15-inch square on a floured work surface. Use a small plate to cut two 7 1/2-inch circles. Put the circles on the prepared baking sheet. Use a small star cookie cutter to cut out 10 stars from the dough scraps to decorate the top of the pastry. Put on the baking sheet with the pastry circles and chill 15 minutes in the fridge.
Stir together the fig preserves and thyme in a small bowl.
To assemble, set the bottom half of the Brie, cut side up, in the center of one of the pastry circles. Spread the fig jam on the Brie and sprinkle with the almonds. Brush the exposed pastry with the egg wash. Top with the other half of the Brie, cut side down. Lay the second pastry circle over and gently press to form it to the sides of the Brie. Fold the bottom circle of dough over, pleating as you go, to form a border.
Brush the pastry all over with the egg wash. Arrange the cut outs on top of the brie, overlapping only slightly. Brush the cut outs with egg wash. Bake until the pastry is very crisp and deep golden, about 30 minutes.
Let cool 10 minutes before serving with the baguette and apple slices.

Categories Appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tbsp fig jam or honey (divided)
1/4 cup to 1/3 cup dried mission figs (sliced)
1/4 cup to 1/3 cup shelled pistachios (roughly chopped)
1/4 cup to 1/3 cup walnut hearts (roughly chopped)
13- oz round French brie

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Place the fig jam in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave for 30 seconds to soften.
In a small bowl, combine the sliced dried figs with the nuts. Add half of the fig jam and mix well to coat the nut mixture.
Place the round of brie in a small cast iron skillet or oven-safe dish. Using a small knife, coat the brie with the remainder of the jam or honey.
Top the brie with the fig and nut mixture.
Place the dish or skillet on top of a baking sheet (this will make it easier to handle and will also catch any melted cheese). Bake on the middle rack of your heated oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until the brie softens.
Remove from the oven and let the brie sit for 3 to 5 minutes or so. Serve warm with your favorite crackers!
