Hot Honey Brie Pecan Bites, buttery crescent roll dough is filled with brie, pecans, and drizzled with spicy honey. These make a wonderful slightly sweet appetizer.

These are great served with Whipped Ricotta and Blistered Tomato Bruschetta and Brussel Sprout Bites.

After I made these Brie and Onion Bites (and ate all of them myself!) I tried to think of similar recipes. I actually liked the following Brie and Pecan Cups recipe better than the Brie and Onion Bites because I always enjoy something sweet more. These had just the right amount of sweetness and with the creaminess of the cheese, it was just a sensory overload.

  • Crescent rolls, phyllo dough (or cups), and refrigerated pizza dough can all be used for this recipe. These premade products make this recipe very quick and easy. As well, they’re great for kids learning to cook.
  • Brie, of course, you can use another melty and creamy cheese if you prefer!
  • Pecans pair beautifully with brie, but almonds, cashews, or walnuts would be lovely too.
  • Honey and cayenne pepper. I like to add a spicy kick to honey. You can use ground red pepper or a drop of hot sauce. However, if you don’t want spicy omit the cayenne pepper or hot sauce completely.

HOW TO STORE

  • You can make these a few hours ahead of time and once cooled store them in an airtight container.
  • If you make them a day before, you need to refrigerate them. You can warm them in the oven watch that they don’t get to brown.
