Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 whole wheel of creamy, soft Brie cheese
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple, peeled and diced
  • 1 cup ripe mango, peeled and diced
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons chopped macadamia nuts
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Optional

  • 1 sheet puff pastry (for wrapping the brie)
  • 1 egg (for egg wash if using puff pastry)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fruit Topping: Peel and dice fresh pineapple and mango into small, uniform pieces. In a bowl, gently toss the diced fruits with honey and fresh lime juice to create a bright, balanced tropical topping.
  2. Prepare the Brie: If desired, wrap the brie wheel in puff pastry and brush it lightly with egg wash to achieve a golden finish. Otherwise, place the brie wheel directly on a parchment-lined baking sheet for a simpler preparation.
  3. Bake the Brie: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the wrapped or unwrapped brie in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese becomes soft and melty, and the puff pastry (if used) turns golden brown.
  4. Add the Tropical Topping: Carefully remove the baked brie from the oven and spoon the pineapple and mango mixture evenly over the top. Garnish with chopped macadamia nuts and fresh mint leaves for added texture and herbal freshness.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately while warm and gooey. Pair with crackers, sliced baguette, or fresh fruit for a delightful appetizer experience.

Notes

  • Use ripe mangoes and pineapples with a sweet aroma and slight softness for best flavor.
  • Avoid overbaking the brie to prevent it from melting out completely or becoming oily.
  • Add fresh mint at the end for a strong, bright contrast rather than dried herbs.
  • If using puff pastry, chill it before wrapping to prevent stickiness or tearing.
  • Serve the dish warm for optimal creaminess and flavor.
