Quite possibly one of my all time favorite appetizers with just a few simple ingredients.
*You can substitute the pear for apples or firm peaches.
Bake Brie and Pear
Ingredients:
- 1 package of Brie (8 ounces or similar size)
- 1 roll of puff pastry
- 1 pear cut into thin slices
- 1 egg slightly beaten
- sprinkle of cinnamon
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375.
Unroll pastry. If you’re pastry comes thick (like Tenderflake does) roll it out until it’s large enough to enclose your entire package of Brie.
Unwrap the Brie and center on the pastry. Cover the Brie with a couple of layers of sliced pear.
Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon.
Fold the pastry around the Brie and press the edges together to seal. Using a pastry brush, brush the top and sides with the beaten egg yolk.
Place on a cookie sheet or baking pan and put in the oven. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until the pastry is golden.
Remove from oven and let cool for at least 15 minutes until serving.
Mmm, We love baked Brie! We usually shove onions, chives and garlic slivers under the top which we slit and then sprinkle with spices. I've heard that it goes good with fruit but haven't tried it yet. This will definitely be the way I do it. Gluten-Free of course 🙂

This is lovely and wonderfully fast! I sprinkled candied ginger (fine cut) on top of the pear slices before I put the cinnamon on. Ummmm,
