Cranberry Brie Bites
Serves 24
These simple appetizers are easy to make during the busy holiday season. Tart cranberries pair particularly well with brie, and who doesn't love a buttery crust?
Ingredients
- 8 ounces crescent roll dough (1 tube)
- 7 ounces brie cheese (rind removed)
- 1/3 cup cranberry sauce
- 1/3 cup chopped pecans
- Fresh thyme leaves
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 24-cavity mini muffin tin.
- Unroll crescent dough onto a lightly floured surface. Pinch seams together and pat into a 12x8-inch rectangle. Cut into 24 squares. Place squares into muffin tin cups.
- Cut brie into 24 small pieces (about 1 rounded teaspoon each). Gently press one piece of cheese into bottom of each dough-lined cup. Top each with a rounded 1/2 teaspoon cranberry sauce and chopped pecans.
- Bake 8 to 12 minutes or until pastry is golden brown.
- Sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves. Serve warm.
Cook Tips
Instead of crescent roll dough, you can use pie dough, rolled into a 12x8-inch rectangle about 1/4-inch thick.
