# Instructions:
01 -
Unfold the puff pastry on a clean surface. Place the brie wheel in the center of the pastry. Top the brie with the brown sugar, chopped pecans, and a dash of cinnamon if you're using it. Gather up the edges of the pastry, pressing them around the brie and gathering at the top to seal. Brush the pastry all over with the beaten egg.
02 -
Set your air fryer temperature to 375 degrees. Place the wrapped brie in the air fryer basket. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.

Let it cool for a few minutes, then serve warm with crackers and apple slices. The brie inside will be perfectly melted and gooey!
# Notes:
01 -
You can make this ahead and refrigerate the wrapped brie before baking. Just add a few extra minutes to the cooking time if it's cold.
02 -
Make sure the puff pastry is fully thawed before using or it won't wrap properly.
03 -
The egg wash gives the pastry that beautiful golden color.
