Cranberry and Brie Tartlets

A Fun Way To Reinvent A Thanksgiving Classic

Gwynn Galvin of Swirls of Flavor is back this month with a delicious Thanksgiving treat!  With only a few ingredients, this easy and fun appetizer can spice up the holiday season while still giving guests a taste of tradition. 

Ingredients 

2 pkgs. Mini phyllo shells
8 ounces Brie cheese, cut into small pieces
½ cup cranberry sauce
¼ cup sliced almonds

Directions

1. Set Up Oven & Baking Sheet: Preheat oven to 375F. Place phyllo cups in a mini muffin pan or arrange on a baking sheet. Spoon about ½ teaspoon cranberry sauce on the bottom of each phyllo cup.

2. Divide The Cheese & Almonds: Top with Brie pieces, dividing evenly between the fillo cups. Sprinkle with sliced almonds.

3. Bake & Enjoy!: Bake for 8 minutes then top with the remaining cranberry sauce, about ¼ teaspoon per fillo cup. Bake for an additional 2 minutes or until heated through.

Extra Tips: 

You can put the mini phyllo cups in a mini muffin pan or arrange them on a baking sheet. Either will work well when baking them.

After the cranberry bites come out of the oven, add a drizzle of honey!


For a hint of heat, drizzle with hot honey!
