- Cut the puff pastry into 2-inch squares using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
- Place a square of Brie cheese in the center of each pastry square.
- Top each Brie piece with a drizzle of honey and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and fresh thyme leaves if using.
- Fold the corners of each pastry square over the Brie and pinch the seams tightly to seal.
- Roll each sealed Brie bite in the chopped pistachios until fully coated.
- Place the coated Brie bites on the prepared baking sheet, spaced about an inch apart.
- Brush the tops of each pastry with the beaten egg.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown and puffed.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
Choose a high-quality Brie for the best flavor, and pinching the seams tightly will help prevent leaks during baking.
