These Pistachio-Crusted Brie Bites with Raspberry Honey Glaze are a perfect elegant appetizer combining creamy Brie cheese, crunchy pistachios, and a sweet-tart raspberry glaze. Baked in crispy mini phyllo cups or puff pastry shells, they offer a delightful balance of textures and flavors, ideal for festive occasions or sophisticated parties.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Brie Bites:

  • 6 oz Brie cheese, cut into small cubes
  • 6–8 mini phyllo cups or puff pastry shells
  • ¼ cup shelled pistachios, finely chopped
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

For the Raspberry Honey Glaze:

  • ¼ cup fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 1 tsp honey
  • ½ tsp lemon juice

Optional Garnish:

  • Fresh mint leaves
  • Extra chopped pistachios

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and arrange the mini phyllo cups or puff pastry shells on a baking sheet, ready for filling.
  2. Assemble the Bites: Place one cube of Brie cheese into each phyllo cup or pastry shell. Sprinkle finely chopped pistachios on top of each piece of Brie. Then, brush the edges of each cup or shell lightly with the beaten egg to ensure a beautiful golden finish.
  3. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the Brie is soft and creamy, and the pastry is crisp and golden brown. Remove from oven carefully.
  4. Make the Raspberry Honey Glaze: While the Brie bites bake, combine raspberries, honey, and lemon juice in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook gently for 2 to 3 minutes until the raspberries break down completely. For a smooth glaze, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds, or leave as is for a rustic texture.
  5. Serve: Drizzle the warm raspberry honey glaze over the baked Brie bites. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and extra chopped pistachios to add color and crunch. Serve immediately for best taste and presentation.

Notes

  • You can substitute puff pastry shells if mini phyllo cups are unavailable.
  • If you prefer a seedless glaze, be sure to strain the raspberry mixture well.
  • These bites pair wonderfully with sparkling wine or a fruity mocktail.
  • For a nut-free version, omit pistachios and consider a crunchy herb garnish instead.
  • To prepare ahead, assemble the bites without baking, refrigerate, then bake just before serving.
