Baked Brie Pizza Recipe 465

GARLIC BRIE PIZZA

Steps:

• Remove papery outer skin from garlic (do not peel or separate cloves). Cut the top off each garlic bulb. Brush with oil. Wrap each bulb in heavy-duty foil; place on a baking sheet. Bake at 425° for 30-35 minutes or until softened. Cool for 10-15 minutes. Squeeze softened garlic into a small bowl and mash., Remove rind from Brie and discard. Cut Brie into 1/4-in. slices. Place crust on a 12-in. pizza pan. Spread with garlic. Arrange cheese slices over garlic; sprinkle with almonds. Bake at 450° for 8-10 minutes or until cheese is melted.

BRIE & POTATO PIZZA

Steps:

• Cook them in a pan of boiling salted water until tender, 5-7 minutes. Take care not to overcook them or they will start to break up. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to fan 180C/conventional 200C/gas 6 and cut the cheese into thin slices.
• Unroll the pizza dough and its baking parchment on to a baking sheet and scatter over the potato and cheese slices.
• Dot the olives all over the pizza, then sprinkle with the rosemary. Drizzle generously with olive oil, grind sea salt and black pepper over the whole thing and bake for 15 minutes. Serve hot, with a tomato and onion or peppery rocket salad.

BAKED BRIE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Using a large chef's knife, cut the white rind off the brie and discard (this works best when the cheese is very cold).
• Roll the chilled dough to about 1/8-inch thick. Transfer the rolled dough to a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Place the brie at the center of the dough square and then spread the jam over the top of cheese. Drape the four corners of the dough, one at a time, across the brie to enclose it. If there is too much overlapping dough, trim the sides before draping. You want the dough to just cover the brie.
• Brush the egg wash over the brie, making sure it does not pool where it meets the tray or it will stick. Sprinkle with the sugar if using. Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 35 to 45 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for 8 to 10 minutes before serving warm.
