Baked Brie in Puff Pastry with Almonds

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Baked Brie in Puff Pastry with Almonds.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and give a light greasing to a 9-inch pie pan to ensure your delicious creation doesn’t stick.

2. Step 2

   Next, take your Brie cheese and gently slice it in half horizontally, creating two lovely flat wheels that will melt beautifully.

3. Step 3

   Now, lay out your puff pastry in the prepared pie pan, making sure it hugs the bottom and sides perfectly.

4. Step 4

   Place one wheel of Brie on the pastry with the rind facing down, allowing its creamy goodness to shine through.

5. Step 5

   Sprinkle a generous amount of sliced almonds over the Brie for that delightful crunch, then top it off with the second wheel of Brie, this time with the rind facing up, creating a deliciously cheesy sandwich.

6. Step 6

   Gather the edges of the puff pastry around the Brie, pinching them together to create a snug seal that keeps all that melty goodness inside.

7. Step 7

   Pop your masterpiece into the preheated oven and let it bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the pastry turns a beautiful golden brown and puffs up enticingly.

8. Step 8

   Once it’s done, let it cool for about 5 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to settle and the cheese to reach the perfect gooey consistency.

   Enjoy this delightful dish as a warm appetizer or a show-stopping centerpiece at your next gathering!.
