Camembert offers a similar flavor profile, while cream cheese is more affordable.

puff pastry

🥗Healthier: phyllo dough

💰Cheaper: homemade pastry dough

Phyllo is lighter and healthier, while homemade dough can save costs.

honey

🥗Healthier: agave syrup

💰Cheaper: maple syrup

Agave syrup has a lower glycemic index, and maple syrup is often less expensive.

fresh herbs

🥗Healthier: dried herbs

💰Cheaper: no herbs

Dried herbs can be a more economical option, though they lack the freshness.

Unfold the thawed puff pastry. Roll it if needed, but do not roll it too thin.

Spoon 1/2 of jam mixture in the center of the pastry sheet, place the brie on top and spread the rest of the jam-nuts mixture onto the cheese.

Fold tightly the pastry edges together.

Flip the brie in the puff pastry over. Decorate it. Brush the wrapped brie with egg wash. To make the egg wash, beat 1 egg in the bowl with a whisk or fork.

Bake for 15-20 min in the preheated oven at 425°F (220°C).

Let the baked brie rest for 30 min before serving.
