How to make a Puff Pastry Christmas Wreath

Making a Christmas centre piece doesn't need to be a daunting task. Our easy puff pasty Christmas wreath is filled with festive flavours of sweet cranberry sauce, salty bacon and buttery pastry. Watch our easy to follow video here or find the full recipe below.

What you'll need:

1 Sheet of Puff Pastry
3 Tbsp Cranberry sauce
1 Tbsp Thyme
1 Wheel of Brie
2 Slices of Cooked Bacon
2 Tbsp Crushed Walnuts
1 Egg beaten

Method:

Lay your puff pastry out onto a tray, place a small bowl in the middle and cut around it lightly
In the middle of your lightly cut circle, cut a star shape (4 lines total)
Spread the filling on the puff pastry (avoiding the cut out star), cranberry sauce, thyme, brie, chopped cooked bacon, and walnuts
Pull each point of the star over the filling towards the outer edge and pinch the pastry together with your fingers
Brush on the egg wash over pastry
Bake for 30 mins at 190 degrees, before serving as a festive showstopper!
