Description
Creamy, warm Brie wrapped in a crunchy pistachio crust and topped with a sweet-tart raspberry honey glaze, perfect as an elegant appetizer or party snack.
Ingredients
- 1 wheel (8 oz) Brie cheese, cold
- 1/2 cup shelled pistachios, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (panko preferred)
- 1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Olive oil spray, for greasing
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with olive oil.
- Cut the cold Brie into 1-inch cubes (about 16 pieces).
- Set up a breading station: place flour in a shallow dish, beaten egg in another, and combine chopped pistachios, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper in a third dish.
- Coat each Brie cube first in flour, then dip in egg, and finally roll in the pistachio breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Place on prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden and Brie is soft but not fully melted. Remove and let cool for 2 minutes.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine raspberry jam and honey. Stir until smooth and heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
- Transfer baked Brie bites to a serving platter. Drizzle with warm raspberry honey glaze and serve immediately.
Notes
You can customize the seasonings to taste. For a spicier glaze, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the raspberry honey mixture.
