Create an elegant, warm appetizer by wrapping brie in flaky puff pastry and topping it with sweet fig jam and aromatic rosemary. This foolproof recipe delivers a show-stopping centerpiece for any gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (8 ounce) wheel of brie cheese, cold
  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
  • 1/4 cup fig jam
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • Crackers, baguette slices, or fresh fruit for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. If your puff pastry sheet is thick, gently roll it out slightly larger than needed to fully enclose the brie wheel.
  3. Place the cold brie wheel in the center of the puff pastry.
  4. Spoon the fig jam evenly over the top surface of the brie wheel. Sprinkle the chopped fresh rosemary over the jam.
  5. Carefully fold the edges of the puff pastry up and over the brie, sealing the edges tightly to completely encase the cheese. Trim any excess pastry. Place the wrapped brie, seam-side down, onto the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Brush the entire surface of the pastry with the beaten egg wash. This helps it brown evenly.
  7. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed. For a crispier bottom, you can place the brie on a preheated baking stone or pizza pan before baking.
  8. Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve immediately with crackers or bread for dipping.

Notes

  • To prevent a soggy bottom, chill the wrapped brie for 15 minutes in the refrigerator before baking.
  • You can substitute fig jam with honey, apricot preserves, or cranberry sauce for different flavor profiles.
  • For a savory option, skip the jam and top the brie with minced garlic and thyme before wrapping.
