Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry thawed
  • 8 oz brie cheese cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 1/2 cup whole-berry cranberry sauce
  • 2 oz prosciutto torn into small pieces
  • 24 fresh sage leaves
  • 1 large egg beaten with 1 tsp water

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 24-cup mini muffin tin.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, gently unfold the thawed puff pastry. Cut into 24 equal squares.
  3. Press each pastry square into a cup of the mini muffin tin.
  4. Place a cube of brie into each pastry cup. Top with approximately 1/2 teaspoon of cranberry sauce, a small piece of prosciutto, and a fresh sage leaf.
  5. Brush the visible edges of the puff pastry with the egg wash. Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and puffed.
