Ingredients
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, pre-packaged
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup walnuts
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 (8-ounce) wheel Brie
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg, beaten
- Crackers, for serving
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Defrost puff pastry for approximately 15 to 20 minutes and unfold.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Saute the walnuts in the butter until golden brown, approximately 5 minutes. Add the cinnamon and stir until walnuts are coated well. Place the walnut mixture on top of the Brie and sprinkle the brown sugar over the mixture. Lay the puff pastry out on a flat surface. Place the brie in the center of the pastry. Gather up the edges of the pastry, pressing around the brie and gather at the top. Gently squeeze together the excess dough and tie together with a piece of kitchen twine. Brush the beaten egg over top and side of Brie. Place Brie on a cookie sheet and bake for 20 minutes until pastry is golden brown.
Serve with crackers.
To give a special look, cut extra pastry into heart or flower shapes and bake until golden.

Holy mother of deliciousness. I stole the show at Thanksgiving with this little number. There wasn't a crumb left and everyone asked me for the recipe. This is super easy and it's almost impossible to go wrong with it, thank you Paula!!!

After looking for the perfect Thanksgiving appetizer, I thought I "settled" on this recipe. But, this has to be one of the most simple, yet impressive and delicious appetizers I have made. It was gone in minutes! I'm not a huge fan of brie, mostly because I've always had it straight from the box, but this was a recipe I will definitely use again. ...and definitely trim off the rind
