Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 8 ounces (about 225 grams) brie cheese wheel
- 1 sheet (about 250 grams) puff pastry, thawed but chilled
- 1/3 cup (about 80 grams) cranberry sauce
- 1/4 cup (about 30 grams) pecans, roughly chopped
- 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for 3 to 5 minutes.
- In a small bowl, beat the egg to prepare the egg wash.
- Roll out the puff pastry slightly on a clean surface to smooth any creases.
- Place the brie wheel in the center of the pastry sheet.
- Spoon cranberry sauce evenly over the top of the brie and sprinkle with chopped pecans and rosemary.
- Fold the puff pastry up and over the brie, sealing the edges tightly and trimming any excess if necessary.
- Brush the outside of the pastry evenly with the beaten egg wash.
- Place the wrapped brie seam side down in the air fryer basket and cook for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown and flaky.
- Allow it to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
Notes
- Keep puff pastry cold before wrapping to maintain flakiness.
- Avoid overfilling with cranberry sauce to prevent leaks.
- Let the baked brie rest before cutting for cleaner slices.
- Reheat leftovers in the air fryer for a few minutes to restore crispness.
