Equipment

  • Mini muffin pan – it's best if you have 2 pans that each fit 24 mini muffins
  • Sheet pan
  • Sharp Knife

Ingredients
  

  • 1 package of frozen puff pastry dough 2 sheets
  • 8 ounces brie cheese / brie wheel
  • Hot pepper jam
  • Chopped pecans

Other jam options for a variety of Baked Brie Bites:

  • Raspberry preserves or raspberry jam
  • Sweet apricot jam or preserves
  • Strawberry preserves

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees f .
  • Defrost the puff pastry in the fridge ahead of time, or lay out on the countertop onto a lightly floured surface. Unroll the puff pastry sheets and let thaw.
  • Place the wedge of brie in the freezer for 10 minutes so it is nice and firm for cutting.
  • Roll out each sheet of puff pastry onto a lightly floured work surface and cut each sheet into 24 even squares.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut the brie cheese into small ¾ - inch cubes, enough for 48 brie pastry bites. You do not need to cut off the brie rind. It is completely edible and you will likely not even notice it's there once the brie melts. It's difficult to cut the rind without wasting a lot of cheese. However if you don't prefer the rind, feel free to carefully slice it off.
  • Spray mini muffin pans with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Place the puff pastry squares into your mini muffin pans.
  • Place approximately 1 teaspoon of hot pepper jam into the middle of the puff pastry square on top of the brie. As a fun alternative, you can make a variety of different kinds of brie bites by using the above recommendations for different jams.
  • Place a brie cheese cube into each cup on top of the jam.
  • To avoid messes, place the mini muffin pans on top of a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. That way if any jam or brie spills over, it will be easy to clean up and it won't make your oven a mess.
  • Bake at 375 degrees for 18-20 minutes or until the puff pastry is lightly golden brown.
