Onion Brie Appetizer

these



These were Great. I made two batches of these one with caraway and one with out. by far everyone liked the one with the caraway. I soften the brie in the microwave to make it spreadable.I also made these ahead of time. sliced them and froze them on a cookie sheet and then popped them into a freezer bag, so they are ready when I have guest drop in. Thanks again

these were great and i can't belive i forgot to review! i have made these 2 different ways but both the the creme brie, which is easily spreadable even when cold. the first time, i made these with the pillsbury crescent sheet dough in place of the puff pastry and another time i used multi grain tortillas and just made pinwheels out of them. both ways were fantastic. thanks for posting this yummy keeper!!

I made this to take to a party and everyone loved it! Very tasty stuff. Next time I make this I think I will cut the dough in half and roll up and then slice and flatten so they are smaller bite sized pieces. All in all though this is a really impressive dish to make with great flavor. Great recipe keen5!

This is the third time that I have made this wonderful appetizer - this time I used a bit more brie and again used a full pkg of Puff Pastry (295 gram) The brie, even when soft, is a bit difficult to spread so I chop it in little bits and distribute it evenly - My friends ALL enjoy this recipe5 Aug 06 As you said people will think you spent hours preparing this wonderful appeitizer - I knew we would like it so I doubled the recipe - I used a 295 gram pkg of puff pastry (this is the size that has 2 blocks in it.), 3 good sized onions, 3 tbsps of brown sugar, 1 tsp rice wine vinegar,Two 175Gram of Camembert - be generous with the caraway. I have 3 dozen going into my freezer. It is so easy, so attractive and so good Thanks Keen5 — Added comments - I made these again and this time I left them slightly under baked so when they are defrosted and baked they will be a perfect color. Another hint leave space between them so the heat can get between them as they puff & bake -This recipe is a regular for my Christmas appetizers Thanks again Keen5

I'm going to make them with a little curry and roast beef instead of vinegar. Similar to a Beef Tenderloin recipe with carmalized onions and a sauce of olive oil, curry and brown sugar. I'll be intouch!!

these were great! my first time experimenting with puff pastry- and it was hard and mine were not anywhere near as pretty as the picture on here- but they were delicious and devoured at christmas. i used a splash of balsamic vinegar because that's what i had, and left out the caraway seeds because we don't like them. soooo delicious.

I made this for a new Bon Apetit group and they all enjoyed and have asked for the recipe. Based on what other comments said, I microwaved the brie for about 20-25 seconds which made it 'spreadable'. Hope that tip helps. I also used vidalia onions and I think I'll use a sharper onion next time for a more savory taste. This was a little sweet, but still very tasty.

This is one of the best appetizers I've ever made! They look amazing and taste incredible - it's the caraway seeds that give it a real unique flavour...everyone at the party loved them. Thanks, keen5, for sharing your recipe. (I took some 'beginning to end' photos to show the process. Fun!)

These are fabulous - sweet and savory at the same time. I took these to a potluck today and they were by far the first item gone. People went back for more and more! I doubled the recipe and also tried to make them a little more bite-sized. I have a few comments on that. I ended up doing what many posters say they would do - cut the dough in half and roll them smaller. I had a problem with that in the end because there just wasn't enough dough to hold in the onions. I had to really pinch the sides together and even still, they would pop open in the oven and it would be hard to keep the filling in. I think you'd have to leave them the original size if you want to keep them from falling apart. OR - I was thinking when I make these again, I might make them into those little purse things - take some dough, put the brie/camembert, onion and carraway inside and fold the dough up and around it to make a little pocket thing that is sealed in the top. I don't know if it would work but it would keep the filling in and still have them bite-sized. Another way might be to make little puff pastry cups and fill them with the cheese, onion and seeds. I'm going to have to experiment. The other issue I had was when cooking these, the filling that leaked out turned quite dark brown on the outside - so I ended up trimming off the leaked cheese and onion with kitchen shears to keep them looking neat. I tried using a knife but it was a lot harder than the shears, just in case anyone else runs into this. I will definitely make these again and experiment a little. I made the rolls a day ahead and refrigerated them until ready to cook, and that held it all together very nicely for slicing.

Delicious! Do not leave out the caraway seeds, they really complete the appetizers. The only suggestion I would have would be to put a little sea salt on top to give it a sweet and salty contrast.

Excellent! I made this on naan bread, instead of the puff pastry this time. Excellent combination of flavors. Everyone raved!

these were so good and so easy to make yet very impressive looking. I've made them twice already! and i live in Ireland at the moment where a wedge of Brie is only $1.00!!! so it's a bargain appetizer!

Delicious! Enjoyed by everyone at the party. I left the puff pastry flat instead of rolling it but that was the only change I made. Will definitely make this again and again. Thanks for sharing!

Made this for our New Year's Eve get together and it was everyone's favorite at the table. The first thing gone. I was really surprised at how easy it was to put together for such a great result. Love the combo of onions and brie. This will be repeated many times I can tell. I had to print several recipes at guest request.

This recipe was fabulous! There were only 3 of us so I figured I'd have leftovers but I was wrong! They were pretty easy to make and looked perfect after baking. I didn't use the caraway (which I love), but my two guests didn't. The only comment was maybe a little more brie would have been nice... I'll try that next time... and make 2 batches, 1 with the caraway and 1 without.
