Ingredients
Sausage Mixture
- ½ pound ground pork
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
Brie Bites
- ½ cup (138.5 g) whole berry cranberry sauce
- 4 ounces brie, rind removed, cut into 24 equal cubes
- 1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent dough
- 1 large egg, room temperature, beaten
- 1 tablespoon water
- fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a 24-count mini muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
Sausage Mixture
- In a medium skillet over medium heat, add pork, parsley, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up the meat as you go, for about 8-10 minutes, or until meat is no longer pink. Drain excess grease if necessary. Set aside
Assembly
- Working on a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough into a 9x14-inch rectangle. (If you are using perforated crescent roll dough, be sure to pinch the seams to seal.)
- Cut the dough into 24 equally-sized squares. (approximately 2½-inches each)
- Press a crescent square into each muffin cup. Fill each with about 2 teaspoons of the sausage mixture, one cube of brie, and a teaspoon of cranberry sauce.
- In a small bowl whisk together the egg and water. Brush the egg wash over the sides and top of the dough.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Garnish with parsley and serve.
