Description

Flaky croissant dough filled with creamy mashed sweet potato and melted brie cheese, baked to golden perfection for a savory-sweet treat.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed
  • 4 ounces brie cheese, rind removed and cubed
  • 1 package (8 count) refrigerated croissant dough
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Place sweet potato cubes on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and roast for 20 minutes until tender. Mash in a bowl and mix with thyme, salt, and pepper.
  2. Unroll croissant dough and separate into triangles. Place a spoonful of mashed sweet potato and a few cubes of brie in the center of each triangle.
  3. Fold the dough over the filling to form pockets, pressing edges to seal. Brush tops with beaten egg wash.
  4. Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and puffed. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

You can customize the seasonings to taste.
