Prosciutto-Wrapped Peach Baked Brie in Pastry. The summer season appetizer everybody must be making. Flaky puff pastry wrapped round a wheel of creamy Brie cheese, topped with candy peach jam, contemporary peach slices, and salty prosciutto. Baked till golden and crisp on the surface, completely melty inside. Whereas it’s within the oven, I combine contemporary peaches with honey and a splash of vinegar for the best topping that makes it even yummier!

This one’s at all times a crowd favourite. It seems spectacular, however takes virtually no time in any respect—good for last-minute get-togethers.

Once I consider summer season, I consider nights exterior, large household dinners, Dad on the grill, lengthy pool days, watermelon slices, ice cream each evening… and candy, juicy peaches. All the time peaches.

Right here in Colorado, we get the finest Palisade peaches. However I’ll at all times have a mushy spot for Ohio peaches. They’re those I grew up on, and I nonetheless replenish each time we return in the summertime.

With June formally right here, this recipe simply feels proper. Candy, easy, summery meals. The type I wish to serve all season lengthy.

I really used frozen peaches from final yr to check this recipe early (sure, I plan forward in terms of peaches!), however lots of you might be beginning to get these first early summer season peaches—that is the proper method to make use of them!

I have already got plans to make this for the 4th of July, and just about each summer season gathering from now till September. It’s simply that good!

Steps

Step 1: Put together the Brie

One thing my Nonnie at all times taught me—appetizers must be easy. So store-bought puff pastry? All the time a should! Like her, I hold a pair bins within the freezer for issues like baked Brie or a fast summer season galette.

Let the puff pastry thaw, then gently unfold it and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Unwrap your wheel of Brie and set it proper within the heart of the pastry. Utilizing a paring knife, rating the highest of the Brie in a crosshatch sample. This helps all that candy jam soak in.

Spoon a number of tablespoons of peach jam excessive (I really like those from Complete Meals or Dealer Joe’s this time of yr—farm stands normally have nice native ones, too). Add a number of peach slices—contemporary or frozen each work. Then sprinkle on some contemporary thyme and plenty of black pepper.

Little tip: You’ll have further jam, and it’s SO good. Use it with crackers, as a glaze for grilled rooster, or simply unfold on toast with somewhat butter. Summer time in a jar!

Step 2: Prosciutto + Wrapping

Now take skinny slices of prosciutto and drape them proper excessive of the Brie. Tuck the sides beneath so the entire thing is gently wrapped—it doesn’t should be good.

Then wrap the puff pastry up and over the brie, gently pinching to seal the sides. Brush the entire pastry with a overwhelmed egg, and if you wish to get somewhat fancy (I at all times do), sprinkle with coarse sugar. It provides somewhat sparkle and somewhat taste.

Step 3: Bake

Bake in a sizzling oven (400°F) till the pastry is a deep golden brown and crisp—don’t fear if it will get somewhat darkish, that’s what you need! The Brie will begin to ooze a bit… which simply means it’s melty and able to be devoured.

Step 4: The Peach Honey

Whereas the Brie bakes, make the peach topping: simply contemporary peach slices, a drizzle of honey, and a splash of balsamic. Let it simmer till the peaches get somewhat jammy and the entire thing smells like summer season.

Spoon the nice and cozy peach honey over the Brie proper after baking. It’s candy, sticky, and the proper end to an already scrumptious dish.

What to serve this with?

I at all times set out a mixture of crackers and toasted ciabatta—one thing crunchy is ideal for scooping. Simply seize a spoon and dig in, then pile that melty Brie and flaky pastry proper on high.

The prosciutto provides a savory, salty chew that’s so good with the creamy Brie. And that peach honey? It simply sweetens the deal in one of the simplest ways.

When you’re internet hosting a much bigger group, I extremely suggest baking two rounds and setting them out on a giant cheese board surrounded by crackers, bread, and contemporary summer season fruit. It seems so fairly and appears like the proper summer season unfold.
