Apple Fig Brie Phyllo Bundles - a delicious and easy to prepare appetizer or party finger food that's easy to make in advance and pop into the oven when needed.
Course:
Appetizer, Hors D'Ouevres
Cuisine:
North American
Servings: 12 hors d'ouevres
Ingredients
- 1 large apple
- 2 tbsp butter
- pinch salt
- 1/4 tsp five spice powder
- juice of half a lemon
- 1/2 cup chopped dried figs
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1/2 pkg frozen phyllo pastry
- 6-8 ounces brie cheese
Instructions
-
Peel and dice the apple.
-
Add the apples to a saute pan along with the 2 Tbsp butter.
-
Toss together over medium heat until the apples begin to soften but are still firm.
-
Add the figs.
-
Cook only for a minute or two more, remove from heat and allow to cool thoroughly.
-
Cut the pastry sheets into about 4x6 rectangles. Use four of these per hors d'oeuvre.
-
Lay one sheet of phyllo flat, brush with a little butter and repeat until you have a stack of 4 layers.
-
Place a tablespoon of the fig apple mixture along with a small square of cheese at the center of short side of the rectangle, near the edge.
-
Fold the sides in toward the middle, meeting almost at the center, almost covering the filling, then roll up like a spring roll.
-
Place the bundles, seam side down on a parchment lined baking sheet.
-
Bake at 350 degrees F for about 15 minutes or until they are evenly golden brown. Cool for a few minutes before serving.
When or where do you add the five spice powder and salt? Are the apples dusted with this prior to sauteing them or is it added to the melted butter? I want to do these tonight for Valentine’s Day dinner.
