1.9 ounce package mini phyllo shells (about 15 shells)
3 tablespoons fig jam
3 slices brie cheese, rind removed, cut into ½-inch cubes
2 tablespoons finely chopped toasted walnuts
2 tablespoons pomegranate seeds
Orange zest, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Arrange phyllo shells on a baking sheet.
- Place a cube of brie in each shell and top with about ½ teaspoon fig jam.
- Bake for 8–10 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle with walnuts, pomegranate seeds, and orange zest.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Use raspberry, apricot, or cherry jam instead of fig for variety.
Swap walnuts with pecans or almonds for different flavors.
Drizzle with honey for extra sweetness or balsamic glaze for tang.
Add fresh thyme or rosemary for a savory twist.
Best served fresh; reheat in oven to maintain crispness.
