Brie & Apricot Puffs are an easy and sophisticated appetizer that will impress all your guests and only require four ingredients! I wanted to make something nice to pair with wine for a an appetizer, but didn’t want to slave away in the kitchen making something complicated. I baked up some puff pastry shells, filled them with apricot preserves and creamy brie and threw them back in the oven for a fantastically simple appetizer everyone loved.
I am a sucker for a good appetizer. Quite frankly, I would ideally eat all my meals in small bites such as these. Perhaps add some Asiago BLT Bites and some Caramelized Onion and Parmesan Dip to the table and you’ve got yourself a party!
Speaking of parties, it’s that time of year to start thinking about the holidays. It’s crazy, I know, but first Halloween will be here before we know it, then Thanksgiving and in a blink of an eye we will be celebrating Christmas! Yikes! But, I’ve got you covered with these amazing appetizers as well as so many more on their way.
