Ingredients
– 16 ounces premade crescent roll dough for base of the wreath
– 1 cup cranberry sauce for tart sweetness and color
– 8-ounce wheel of Brie cheese for creamy richness
– 1 beaten egg for shiny golden crust
– 1 teaspoon flaky sea salt for flavor enhancement
– 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves or rosemary for aromatic seasoning
Instructions
1-Creating this Brie Cranberry Wreath starts with preheating your oven to 375ยฐF (190ยฐC) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Arrange the crescent roll dough triangles on the sheet, overlapping the bases to form an 8-inch circle with points sticking outward, as this sets the wreath’s shape. Once the base is ready, spoon the cranberry sauce onto the dough bases and place the Brie wedges on top for a delicious filling.
2-Next, fold the dough points over the filling and tuck them underneath to seal everything in place. Brush the entire wreath with the beaten egg, then sprinkle with flaky sea salt and add fresh thyme or rosemary for extra flavor. Bake for 30 minutes, turning the pan halfway through to ensure even browning, until the crust achieves a dark golden color.
3-After baking, transfer the wreath to a platter and let it cool slightly before slicing. Serve it with crackers, apple slices, pretzels, or crostini to complement the flavors.
4-First, preheat the oven and prepare your baking sheet.
5-Arrange the dough into a circle and add the fillings.
