Blueberry Mini Brie Bites
Blueberry Mini Brie Bites are the perfect holiday appetizer that can be made in just over 20 minutes. The pastry-wrapped brie is topped with blueberries, making them savory and sweet at the same time.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Crescent roll dough, or Puff Pastry
- 8 ounces Brie cheese
- ½ cup Blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375℉.
- Liberally spray two mini muffin trays with baking spray and set aside.
- Roll the crescent roll dough out on a clean surface or cutting board. Pinch together the pre-cut creases,then use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into 24 equal squares. (I did 6 columns from the top and 4 rows from the side.)
- Place each cut crescent dough square in the prepared mini muffin trays. Press down to form a small muffin cup.
- Cut up the brie into 24 pieces and divide among all muffin cups. Top with 2-3 blueberries each.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, until lightly golden.
Christina's Notes
- Chill the Pastry: Working with cold pastry is easier and helps it to be flakier.
- Egg Wash for Shine: Brush the pastry with a beaten egg before baking for a golden-brown and glossy finish.
- Ventilation: If using a fully enclosed pastry, make a small slit on top to allow steam to escape.
- Monitor Baking Time: Baking times can vary depending on your oven and the type of pastry used. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.
- Let Them Rest Slightly: Allow the baked brie bites to cool for a few minutes before serving. This allows the brie to set slightly and prevents burning your mouth.
- Pairing Suggestions: These pair well with sparkling wine, light white wines (like Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio), or even a crisp cider.
- Serve this recipe with: Serve crescent roll brie bites with Ranch Spicy Crackers, Sweet and Spicy Pickles, or Avocado Hummus.
