Three-Ingredient Crescent Brie Bites
Warm, flaky crescent dough wrapped around creamy brie and sweet fruit jam for an easy baked appetizer. These bite-size pastries are simple, elegant, and perfect for holidays, parties, or last-minute entertaining.
INGREDIENTS:
2 tubes refrigerated crescent roll dough 8 oz each
8 oz brie cheese chilled and cut into 24 cubes
1/2 cup fruit jam or preserves such as raspberry, apricot, or fig
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat the oven to 375°F and grease a 9×13-inch glass baking dish.
Place the brie in the freezer for about 10 minutes to make it easier to cut.
Unroll the crescent dough and press the seams together on each tube to form two rectangles.
Cut each dough rectangle into 12 squares, making 24 squares total.
Cut the chilled brie into 24 small cubes, leaving the rind on if desired.
Place each dough square in the prepared baking dish and press it down lightly.
Add one cube of brie to the center of each dough square.
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of jam over each piece of brie.
Pull the dough corners up around the filling and pinch closed at the top.
Arrange the bites snugly in the dish so they can touch slightly.
Bake for 15–20 minutes, until puffed and deep golden brown.
Let the bites rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.
