Method
 

Prepare the Oven and Puff Pastry

Apply Egg Wash
  1. Mix the beaten egg with water to create an egg wash.
  2. Brush the egg wash over the wrapped Brie to give it a golden color when baked.
Bake the Brie

  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.
Serve
