Baked Brie With Grapes Recipes

ONE-BITE BAKED BRIE WITH GRAPE-PECAN COMPOTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Toss the grapes with the oil on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, tossing once, until the grapes burst and are very soft, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, spread the pecans out on a second rimmed baking sheet, and bake until very golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool, then finely chop.
• Transfer the grapes to a small shallow bowl with a slotted spoon, leaving the oil behind. Stir in the lemon juice and zest and a pinch of salt; set aside to cool completely, then stir in the toasted pecans. (The compote can be made up to a day ahead and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before serving.)
• Cut off just the very edges of the Brie wheel to make a rough square (it is OK if some rind remains at the corners), then cut into 30 cubes. Put a cube in each phyllo cup, and put the cups on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
• Top each cup with some of the compote, and garnish with a dusting of pepper. Serve warm.

Set Brie/grape "sandwich" onto puff pastry. Brush larger round of puff pastry with egg, and place egg side down over Brie. Press out any excess air and crimp edges to seal. Decorate top with puff pastry scraps if desired. Brush outside of Brie with beaten egg. Place on cookie sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Tent loosely with foil and return to oven for 10-15 more minutes. Brie should be golden brown and puffy looking. Remove from oven and let cool for one hour before serving.

GRILLED BRIE WITH GRAPES AND PISTACHIOS

Steps:

• Place a piece of aluminum foil under the rack of your grill and preheat it to medium-high.
• Drizzle the oil over the grapes and season with salt and pepper. Place the grapes and the brie onto the grill and cook, turning both occasionally, until the grapes are lightly charred and bursting, about 4 to 6 minutes.
• Remove the grapes from the heat, transfer to the serving platter and drizzle with balsamic. Continue to cook the brie for 2 to 3 minutes, or until grill marks appear and it is soft but you are still able to lift it. Add to the platter.
• Scatter the pistachios over the brie and grapes and garnish with a few basil leaves. Serve immediately with sliced baguette and crackers.
