Course: Appetizer
Cuisine: American
Servings: 12 servings
- 1 8 oz tube Crescent Sheet roll cut into 2 inch squares
- 6 oz. Brie cheese cubed
- 1 tbsp. unsalted butter melted to brush pans
- ⅓ cup cranberry sauce about 1 tsp. per piece
- 1 tsp. fresh thyme or rosemary finely chopped
- ¼ cup walnuts crushed
- 2 tbsps. honey optional for topping drizzle
Preheat oven to 400 degree F.
Grease the 12 piece non-stick mini muffin tin pan with butter.
Cut the crescent sheet into 1.5-2 inch squares. The whole sheet should be cut evenly into 12 pieces.
Cut the brie cheese into 1 inch cubes.
First, place each crescent dough piece into the individual muffin tins. Add a piece of brie cheese, top with the cranberry sauce and add the herbs and crushed walnuts on top. You can also add the walnuts afterwards if you prefer.
Bake in the oven for 10 minutes or until the sides on the crescent dough is golden on the sides and the center cheese has melted.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes. If you wish to drizzle some honey before serving you can do that now.
Serve and enjoy!
- Brie Cheese: Freezing your wheel or wedge of brie for just 20 minutes makes slicing it into small pieces a breeze.
- Crescent Dough: Aim to cut your crescent squares into similar sizes, for even cooking.
- Grease Pan: Be sure to grease your muffin tin with butter for easy bite removal!
- Watch the Time: Oven temperatures may vary, so keep an eye on your bites to avoid over-browning or may take a minute or two more to brown.
- Serve warm: I recommened eating the bites while they are still warm.
- Do not over fill the bites or else the filling will ooze out.
