How to Make Mini Brie Pumpkins
Mini Brie Pumpkins are the perfect bite-sized treat for autumn! 🎃 These adorable little pumpkins are bursting with creamy Brie cheese, making them a savory delight for your fall gatherings. 🧀🍂 Whether served as a party appetizer or a fun snack, they’re sure to be a hit!
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 1 small wheel Brie cheese
- 2-3 tbsp jam (e.g., apricot)
- Cooking twine
- Pretzel sticks or cinnamon sticks (for stems)
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
Wrapping the brie in the puff pastry and twine is super easy and takes minutes. All pumpkins look slightly different, so don’t worry if they aren’t identical!
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Roll out puff pastry and cut into squares. Place a spoonful of jam and a slice of Brie in the center of each square.
- Fold pastry around Brie, pinch edges, and tie with cooking twine to form a pumpkin shape.
- Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush with beaten egg.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden.
- Remove twine and insert a pretzel or cinnamon stick as a stem.
- Cool slightly and serve warm. Enjoy!

Perfect Presentation Platters
You could put these cute Mini Brie Pumpkins on just about anything! Here are some of my favorites:
Wooden Serving Boards: For a checkered board, I love my checkered chopping board from MacKenzie-Childs. This is more of a splurge, so you could also go with this $17 version from Temu! Walmart also has this beautiful acacia serving board for a great price.
Pumpkin Trays: Anthropologie has this beautiful Pumpkin Board, as well as a similar version from World Market. For individual pumpkin appetizer plates, Pottery Barn has a gorgeous set of 4 for $40. World Market also has white individual pumpkin plates as well!
White Serving Platters: I love this set of two white porcelain platters, which I use all the time! You could also go with this large white porcelain platter or this faux white marble tray from Walmart is also a great choice!
Kitchen Links: I get asked all the time about the products in the background of my kitchen. Much of it is from MacKenzie-Childs, which I have slowly grown a collection of over the years! My favorites are my black and white checkered teapot, and the gray and white checkered utensil holder. I also have this enamel canister that you can find in small, medium, or large.
Can I Prep These Mini Brie Pumpkins in Advance?
Yes! You can wrap the brie and jam in the puff pastry and arrange the twine up to the day before. I’d recommend waiting to add the egg wash until you are ready to bake so the pastry doesn’t get soggy.
Storing Leftovers
Keep any leftover Mini Brie Pumpkins in a Tupperware container or place in the refrigerator, where they should stay fresh for 2-3 days. A Ziploc Bag also works!
Enjoy!
I hope you loved these Mini Brie Pumpkins as a cute fall staple! For more fun ideas, be sure to check out my Donut and Apple Cider Bar, these adorable Mini Pumpkin Spice Donuts, or these delicious 4-Ingredient Cinnamon Apple Pastries. Have a wonderful day, friends!
