Preparation

  • Place a small cube of brie cheese in the center of each pastry square.
  • Top each brie cube with about 1/2 teaspoon of your choice of jam.
  • Brush the beaten egg over the exposed pastry edges for a golden color.
  • Place the pastry bites on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between each piece.

Baking

Notes

You can prepare the pastry bites a few hours in advance. Make sure to keep the puff pastry cold until ready to bake for the best texture.
