Mexican Baked Brie

You'll Need

  • Banana
  • 1 1/2 cups orange marmalade
  • Cilantro
  • Jalapenos
  • Almonds
  • 1/4 cup Grand Marnier
  • Puff Pastry Sheet
  • Egg

 Slice banana very thinly. De-seed and chop jalapeno. Chop cilantro leaves. Toast almonds until golden.

In a saucepan, combine marmalade and Grand Marnier and cook until bubbly. Set aside one-quarter cup of mixture. Add jalapenos to remaining mixture and until soft. Add cilantro and approximately one minute. Remove from heat.

Slice Brie down the middle, horizontally and place banana slices and small amount of orange mixture on top of bottom half. Top with other half of Brie. Place pastry on oven safe platter and add the remaining bananas, orange mixture and toasted almonds; top with Brie. Wrap pastry in a blanket form and turn over. Vent the Brie and brush with beaten egg yolk. Bake at 350 degrees F until bubbly and golden brown. Let set for at least 10 minutes.

Drizzle with remaining orange mixture. Garnish with mandarin orange slices and orange spirals.
