  • Rolling Pin

Ingredients

For the Filling

  • 1 serving Brie Cheese Choose high-quality Brie for optimal melting.
  • 0.5 lb Italian or Breakfast Sausage Remove the casing for better crumbling and flavor integration.
  • 0.5 cup Onion Finely diced.
  • 1 clove Garlic Minced.
  • 1 tsp Fresh Thyme Or ½ tsp dried.
  • 2 tbsp Fig Jam or Apricot Preserves Optional, but highly recommended.

Instructions

Cooking Instructions

  • In a skillet over medium heat, crumble and brown the sausage until crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Stir in diced onion and minced garlic, cooking until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add thyme, mix well, and then remove from heat to cool.
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • On a floured surface, roll the puff pastry into a square large enough to encase the Brie and filling.
  • Place the Brie in the center of the pastry, layer with fig jam, then spoon the cooled sausage mixture over the top.
  • Fold the edges of the pastry over the Brie and filling, brush the top with the beaten egg, and bake for 20-25 minutes.
  • Let the dish cool for about 5 minutes before slicing and serving warm.

Notes

Best enjoyed warm with accompaniments like crackers or apple slices. Consider sprinkling with extra fresh thyme before serving.
