- 1 puff pastry sheet
- 1 round brie
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tbsp coconut sugar or regular sugar
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 egg
Preheat oven to
Wrap the brie circle in puffed pastry. I cut off the corners so there's not too much dough. Gently tie 3 pieces of twine around to create a pumpkin look. I tie the knots on the side where the puffed pastry meets so there is a 'clean' side. I take a little piece of extra dough and twist to make a pumpkin 'stem'
Brush with 1 whisked egg and bake.
While the brie is baking I make the nuts. Melt butter, sugar, and cinnamon in a skillet. Add chopped nuts. Roast quickly, no more than a few minutes on medium heat then remove. Place in a small bowl.
Add a little maple syrup and a pinch of salt. Stir.
When the brie has cooled slightly, gently remove the twine. Place the nuts down on a cutting board. Place the brie on top. I like to add a little sage and a small piece of leftover dough as a stem
