Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and set it aside.

Using a rolling pin, roll the sheet of puff pastry into an 11×11-inch square. (Don't worry if it's not perfect, you just want it to be large enough to cover the brie completely.) If the pastry is sticking, dust the surface with a little all purpose flour.

Place the wheel of brie in the center of the puff pastry square. Spread the preserves on top of the brie.

Fold the puff pastry corners around the brie, sealing the pastry very well so it doesn't pop open in the oven. Use your hands to press the edges to make it look a little neater. (It doesn't have to be perfect, this app is supposed to be rustic.) If the puff pastry has warmed up, pop the brie in the fridge for 10-30 minutes until it's nice and cold. Cold pastry is key to flaky layers!

If you want a shiny crust, whisk an egg with 1 tablespoon of water. Use a pastry brush to brush the egg wash on the outside of the pastry, getting it into all the nooks and crannies.

Bake the brie for 35-40 minutes, until the pastry is deep golden-brown. Let it cool for 5-10 minutes so the cheese has a little bit of time to set up. Serve the baked brie with apples, grapes, crackers, bread, or anything else you like.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Chill Your Puff Pastry 🧊
Keep puff pastry in the freezer until the last moment before assembly, then work quickly—cold pastry creates superior flaking and prevents the butter from melting prematurely during baking.
Strategic Jam Placement 🎯
Place jam in the center of the brie with a small indent, keeping it away from the edges to prevent leakage through the pastry seams during baking.
Egg Wash for Golden Perfection ✨
Brush the assembled pastry with beaten egg wash, being careful not to seal the seams completely, which allows steam to escape and prevents soggy bottoms.
Choose Your Jam Wisely 🍓
Use jam with thicker consistency or reduce runny preserves on the stovetop first—thinner jams will leak out, while fig, apricot, or pepper jams create sophisticated flavor pairings.
Serve Immediately While Warm 🔥
Bake and serve within 2-3 minutes of removing from the oven while the brie is perfectly melted and the pastry is at peak crispness—the texture deteriorates quickly as it cools.
