Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Pesto Baked Brie with Pine Nuts.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C), setting the stage for a delicious treat.
Step 2
Next, take your Brie cheese and gently slice it in half horizontally, creating two beautiful rounds that resemble a delightful layered cake.
Step 3
Now, spread a generous layer of pesto sauce on the cut surface of one half, allowing the vibrant flavors to shine through.
Step 4
Sprinkle toasted pine nuts and a touch of brown sugar over the pesto, adding a delightful crunch and sweetness that will elevate your dish.
Step 5
Carefully place the other half of the Brie on top, forming a cheesy sandwich that’s simply irresistible.
Step 6
Unroll your crescent roll dough and wrap it around the entire Brie round, making sure to seal all the edges tightly to keep that gooey goodness inside.
Step 7
Once wrapped, transfer your cheesy masterpiece to a baking sheet, ready for its moment in the oven.
Step 8
Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the Brie is wonderfully softened and the crescent roll dough turns a lovely golden brown.
Step 9
As the aroma fills your kitchen, you’ll know you’re in for a treat that’s perfect for sharing—or savoring all on your own!.
