Ingredients
Pastry
- 1 sheet low-carb puff pastry or crescent dough
Filling
- 6 oz brie cheese, cut into chunks
- ½ cup sugar-free cranberry sauce
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the pastry bites.
- Prepare Dough: Cut the sheet of low-carb puff pastry or crescent dough into squares sized to fit neatly into a mini muffin tin, pressing each square gently into the muffin cups to form small cups.
- Add Filling: Place a chunk of brie cheese into each pastry cup, then top each with a spoonful of sugar-free cranberry sauce for a blend of creamy and tangy flavors.
- Bake: Bake the filled pastry cups in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm as a delightful appetizer perfect for holiday gatherings or any party.
Notes
- Add chopped walnuts on top before baking for added crunch and texture.
- For a lower-carb option, swap the dough with keto chaffle cups instead of traditional pastry.
