Salty, cheesy, and SO delicious! That's the perfect way to describe these Asparagus Prosciutto and Brie Puff Pastry Bundles. The best crowd-pleasing appetizer for the holiday's!

Ingredients

Pastry Bundle

  • 1 sheet puff pastry thawed according to package directions
  • 9 slices prosciutto
  • 1 wheel brie cut into ¼ inch thick slices
  • 1 bunch fresh asparagus

Egg Wash

  • 1 large egg
  • 1 Tablespoon water
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Egg Wash

  • In a small bowl, whisk together egg and water until smooth. Set aside.

Pastry Bundles

  • Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Heat oven to 425°F.
  • Cut pastry into 9 equal squares.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll each square to 1/16 inch thickness.
  • Top each square with 1 slice prosciutto.
  • Place 1 slice of brie and 4-6 asparagus spears at an angle on top of prosciutto.
  • Fold top right corner of pastry over asparagus.
  • Fold bottom left corner over bundle and tuck under.
  • Use a small pastry brush to brush egg wash over all exposed pastry.
  • Place in freezer for 10-15 minutes.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown.

Notes

Substitutions:
  • Camembert Cheese can be used instead of brie.
  • If you do not have prosciutto, you can use bacon.
 
Expert Tips:
  • Make sure to use thin asparagus spears! If they're thick, they will not cook properly.
  • The puff pastry needs to be rolled out on a lightly floured surface.
  • You can cut the rind off of the brie, if desired.
  • If the puff pastry isn't wanting to stick to itself, you can use a small amount of the egg wash to help stick it together.
  • Don't skip the freezing period! The pastry will be too warm to bake immediately and it needs to be cold to puff properly.
  • This recipe needs to be served warm, right out of the oven. This way, the brie is still melty and everything is warm and delicious!
