This air fryer brie is wrapped in golden pastry and filled with a warm blueberry walnut mix. It’s an easy yet impressive treat perfect for parties or cozy nights in.
Servings: 12
Equipment
- Cooking Twine 4 x 20-Inch Lengths
Ingredients
- 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/4 Cup walnuts chopped
- 1 Cup blueberries
- 1 Tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 Teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 Wheel brie cheese 8-Ounce
- 1 Sheet pastry
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 Tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/4 Cup caramel sauce
- rosemary optional garnish
Instructions
- Soak the cooking twine in water for 10 minutes.
- Heat a pan over medium heat. Melt the butter, then add walnuts and blueberries. Cook for 5 minutes. Transfer to a medium mixing bowl and combine with brown sugar and cinnamon.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F for 5 minutes.
- Roll out the pastry sheet and pinch to seal any cracks from the fold. Place the brie wheel in the center of the pastry sheet. Top with blueberries and walnuts, then wrap the puff pastry tightly over the top.
- Brush with egg wash, then sprinkle with sugar. Place cooking twine in a starburst pattern on a wooden cutting board and place the pastry over the twine in the centre. Tie the cooking twine over the center of the pastry and trim the excess. I recommend you tie twine just tight enough to press against the pastry, but not tight enough to create a crease- the pastry will “puff” as it cooks.
- Lay a small circle off oil or parchment paper in the air fryer basket, so it covers the space just under the pastry. Place pastry on top and cook for 10 minutes.
- Drizzle pastry with caramel sauce and garnish with blueberries and rosemary. Serve with extra blueberry mix, pretzels and cookie crisps. Cut a small hole in the center to dip.
Notes
Seal the pastry well: This helps keep all that melty cheese inside.
Don’t overtighten the twine: Leave room for the pastry to puff as it cooks.
Chill the wrapped brie briefly: A few minutes in the fridge before air frying can help it hold its shape.
Serve immediately: The brie is best when warm and gooey inside.
