Phyllo wrapped baked brie cheese with a glaze of fig jam and crushed pecans is a delicious appetizer. It's super quick to prepare and bakes in 20 minutes. The brie is baked and the cheese is gooey and super flavorful. Served with fruits and crackers.
I don't think it is a secret that I am super passionate about the food I cook and the recipes I create! To be able to make food that my friends and family find tasty makes me quite happy.
One of his most requested snacks for our quality time is this phyllo baked brie with fig jam and pecans, to enjoy with a nice cold bottle of Wente Vineyard's Morning Fog Chardonnay. This appetizer is a crowd pleaser and so easy to prepare. The brie bakes quickly and you have a gooey cheesy appetizer topped with fig jam and pecans. We love it with fresh fruits and crackers.
