Savoury Palmiers with Double Cream Brie

Ingredients

100 g black olives, pitted
2 garlic cloves
2 anchovies
3 tbsp olive oil
½ juice of a lemons
1 sprig thyme
1 pack puff pastry

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

In a food processor, or with a stick mixer, blend the black olives with olive oil, anchovies, garlic and fresh thyme until you have a smooth tapenade.

Roll out a sheet of puff pastry and smear it with the olive tapenade.

Cut thin slices of Castello® Double Cream Brie and place evenly over the sheet of puff pastry.

Roll the puff pastry from each side until the two rolls meet in the middle – forming two even-sized rolls.

Cut the roll into slices (1 cm thick) so you can see the nice butterfly pattern of the roll.

Place on a baking tray and bake for 15 minutes at 200°C – or until the palmiers are nice and golden.
