How to Make Baked Brie In Bread
- In a medium bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes, and 4 ounces cream cheese, softened. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add 1/2 cup ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
- Shape the dough into a ball, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or up to 24 hours).
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or pie pan.
- Divide the chilled dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each half into a 10-inch circle.
- Place one 8-ounce wheel of brie cheese in the center of one dough round. Top with the other dough round, pressing the edges to seal. Crimp the edges decoratively with a fork.
- Brush the top of the pastry with 1 egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon of water.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the brie is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve warm with crackers, crusty bread, and sliced apples.
