Baked Brie

THE RECIPE

INGREDIENTS

• Half brie cheese wheel (approx 80 grams)
• 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup almond flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 cup sauteed mushrooms (chopped fine)
• 1 tbsp chopped bacon bits
• 1 tbsp melted butter

DIRECTIONS

Yield: 10 servings

• Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.
• In a small bowl mix almond flour and baking powder.
• In a small saucepan, melt mozzarella cheese over low heat. When fully melted add flour mixture and mix thoroughly until it forms dough.
• Roll out into a circle between 2 sheets of parchment paper. You can make it as thin or thick as you like, just make sure there is enough dough to wrap up around the brie and toppings.
• Place the brie in the center of the rolled out dough.
• Scoop the mushrooms on top and add the bacon bits on top of the mushrooms.
• Make a pinwheel with the dough and fold up around the brie and toppings. Do this by taking a knife and cutting into the dough in strips starting from the brie and cutting out towards the edges (see picture in the side bar).
• Once the brie is wrapped up, place it on a baking sheet with parchment paper and bake for 20 minutes. It is done when the pastry is golden brown.

Serve with low carb crackers.

Enjoy!
