Description
A warm, rustic-elegant Apple Brie Phyllo Galette layered with creamy brie, tender apples, and fragrant thyme.
Ingredients
Scale
- 9 Tbsp salted butter (melted with herbs for flavor)
- 2 1/4 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves (aromatic herb accent)
- 9 ounces phyllo dough, thawed (thin layered pastry sheets)
- 10–13 ounces brie cheese, rind removed (creamy melting cheese)
- 5 small apples, thinly sliced (sweet-tart fruit)
- 2 1/2 Tbsp brown sugar (adds light caramel sweetness)
- Honey, for drizzling (finishing sweetness)
- Flaky sea salt, for topping (balances flavors)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.
- Warm the butter with thyme in a small pan until melted, then transfer it to a heatproof dish.
- Brush a light coat of the thyme butter onto the lined baking sheet, then unroll the phyllo and cover unused sheets with a damp towel.
- Place one sheet on the baking sheet, brush with butter, then continue layering each sheet at a slight angle and brushing lightly, repeating until all sheets are used.
- Spread or scatter the brie over the center, leaving a wide border around the edges.
- Toss the apple slices with brown sugar and arrange them neatly over the brie.
- Fold the phyllo edges inward to frame the apples and coat the border with remaining thyme butter.
- Bake for 40–45 minutes until crisp and deeply golden.
- Finish with a drizzle of honey, a sprinkle of sea salt, and extra thyme if desired, then slice and serve warm.
