Description
Elegant, bite-sized appetizers featuring buttery phyllo cups filled with creamy brie, toasted pecans, and a sweet-tart cranberry drizzle.
Ingredients
- 15 mini phyllo cups (store-bought or homemade)
- 4 oz brie cheese, rind removed, cubed
- 1/4 cup pecans, roughly chopped and toasted
- 1/2 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp water
- 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves (optional)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Arrange phyllo cups on a baking sheet. Place a cube of brie in each cup.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes until brie is melted and phyllo is golden. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- While baking, make the cranberry drizzle: In a small saucepan, combine cranberries, honey, and water. Simmer over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until cranberries burst and sauce thickens. Stir in thyme if using, and season with salt and pepper.
- Top each phyllo cup with toasted pecans and a drizzle of cranberry sauce. Serve warm.
