This week’s recipe is both rich and simple — and also delicious. The classic pairing of cheese and tart apples is set off by a crisp puff pastry crust. With the ingredients on hand, it’ll take you only minutes to put together this treat that’s perfect for dessert, snacks with coffee or even a special breakfast. (The recipe also contains some useful hints on working with puff pastry.) It’s from the Yelton Manor Bed & Breakfast in South Haven, Michigan, a three-story Victorian mansion overlooking Lake Michigan and “dedicated to your privacy and pleasure”.

Ingredients
- 1 box of frozen puff pastry
- A wheel of brie
- 3 tart apples
- 1 egg
- 1T of butter
- Brown sugar
- Cinnamon
- Flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Work quickly with thawed pastry or it gets sticky and difficult. A box has two sheets, let them thaw for about 30 minutes, then roll them on a floured board with a floured rolling pin until about 10 inches square.
- Cut each square into four squares and lay on a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper.
- Layer a slice of brie and 3 slices of Granny Smith or other tart apple in the middle of each square.Overfilling is the enemy, don’t overdo it.
- Top each with a sprinkle of brown sugar, a pinch of cinnamon and a pinch of butter (1T cut into 8 pieces.). Brush the border of each square with a wash of whisked egg.
- Fold two opposite corners together and press to hold. Brush the entire top of pastry with egg wash.
- Bake for 20 minutes until toasty brown and puffy. Serve warm.
