Instructions
Prepare the phyllo dough
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Gently unroll the phyllo dough and cover with a damp cloth to prevent drying.
Pro tip: Keep phyllo sheets covered while working to maintain moisture.
Layer and cut the dough
Take one sheet of phyllo dough, brush it with melted butter, and place another sheet on top. Repeat until you have a stack of four sheets. Cut the stack into 24 squares.
Pro tip: Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter for clean cuts.
Form the cups
Gently press each phyllo square into the cups of a mini muffin tin, creating a small well in the centre.
Pro tip: Use your fingers to press the dough gently into the tin.
Add the fillings
Place a cube of brie into each phyllo cup, followed by a small spoonful of raspberry jam.
Pro tip: Adjust the amount of jam based on your sweetness preference.
Top with walnuts
Sprinkle a few chopped walnuts over the top of each cup for added crunch.
Pro tip: Toast the walnuts beforehand for extra flavour.
Bake the cups
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the phyllo is golden brown and crisp.
Pro tip: Watch closely in the last few minutes to avoid over-browning.
Tips & Tricks
- Use mini muffin tins for perfect bite-sized portions.
