One of the requests I got for a catered event were these cranberry brie bites. These little things are the perfect appetizer and make for a great finger food at gatherings.
CRANBERRY BRIE BITES
TIME: 25 min. YIELD: 24 bites
INGREDIENTS:
1 oz. tube of crescent rolls
1 8 oz. wheel of brie cheese
1 cup whole cranberry sauce (not jellied)
fresh rosemary sprigs
chopped pecans (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS:
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Spray a mini muffin tin with cooking oil.
Dust the counter with a flour and then roll out the crescent dough and pinch the seems together. Next cut 24 equal sized squares and place them into the muffin tin slots.
Cut the brie into small pieces and place a piece in each crescent dough square followed by a spoonful of cranberry sauce, pecans (optional), and a sprig of rosemary.
Place into the oven and bake for about 15 minutes or until the crescent dough is golden brown.
Serve and enjoy!
Hi, Vicki! I think that fig jam would be a wonderful substitute! You could even add a drizzle of honey over the finished product at the end to compliment the fig even more, but test it out to make sure that it doesn't make it too sweet. Hope this helps! :)
I have so many varieties of fig jams I canned over the summer. Just wondering what you think of the flavor mix with figs instead?
