Cranberry Brie Honey Nut Pastry Appetizers

This easy yet elegant looking appetizer (that can probably be served as a dessert), is made with phyllo dough, layered with Brie cheese, cranberry sauce and nuts drizzled with honey 🍯. They are so pretty and a breeze to make and assemble.

A simple scrumptious appetizer that is perfect Thanksgiving Day or Christmas Holidays !

INGREDIENTS

12 sheets thawed phyllo dough

8 oz. (225 g), Brie cheese cut into small pieces
½ cup (140 g) cranberry sauce
½ cup (60 g) pistachios roughly chopped
½ cup (55 g) pecans roughly chopped
4 tablespoons (56 g) melted butter For brushing the phyllo dough
Honey (as needed) for drizzling

DIRECTIONS: Oven Temperature 375 F (190 C)

NOTE:*Thaw the phyllo dough according to the package instructions before beginning; recipe time starts once the phyllo dough is fully thawed.

1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

2.Lay one sheet of phyllo dough and lightly brush it with the melted butter. Layer another sheet on top and brush more butter. Repeat until you have stacked 6 sheets.

3. Cut the stack into rectangles (4”x4” / 10.15 cm x 10.15 cm). Place them on the prepared baking sheet.

4. Bake in a preheated oven at 375 F (190 C) for 8-10 minutes, or until crispy and light golden brown.

5. Place a warm, baked phyllo rectangle on a serving tray. Top with slices of Brie, a spoonful of warm cranberry sauce, a sprinkle of chopped nuts, and a drizzle of honey. Place another phyllo rectangle on top, then finish with a generous sprinkle of mixed nuts and another drizzle of honey.

6. Repeat the assembling process with the rest of the phyllo rectangles.

7. Serve immediately. This delicious appetizer is bursting with all the festive flavours of the holidays! We especially love that it’s a vegetarian option, making it something everyone can enjoy.
