A delightful baked brie recipe wrapped in puff pastry, enhanced with almonds and warm spices, perfect for any occasion.
Thaw the puff pastry until pliable.
Allow the pastry to thaw at room temperature for even pliability.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
Roll out the puff pastry on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Use a rolling pin to achieve an even thickness.
Spread the apricot preserves evenly over the center of the pastry.
Leave a border around the edges for easier folding.
Trim the top rind off the brie and place it in the center of the pastry.
Removing the rind allows the flavors to meld better.
Mix the almonds with brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg, then sprinkle over the brie.
Toast the almonds lightly beforehand for extra crunch.
Fold the pastry around the brie, sealing the edges with water.
Use a little water to help seal the pastry edges.
Beat the egg and brush it over the pastry for a golden finish.
Ensure even coverage for a uniform golden color.
Bake the wrapped brie for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
Check the pastry halfway through to prevent over-browning.
Let the baked brie cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
