    Peach & Brie Strudel: A Sweet and Savory Appetizer

    The beauty of today's featured dish is it could also pass as breakfast (let your mind imagine a stuffed croissant loaf!), lunch (just add a light salad!), or of course dinner (the perfect, quick appetizer to help keep the crowd entertained while the main course is cooking!), AND it's absolutely to die for! I am a big sucker for anything with melty, delicious brie as well as buttery, flaky croissants, you didn't have to talk me into eating several servings of this... I am eating for two after all or am I not? 😉 To keep things interesting, I added some ripe, fresh peaches tossed in brown sugar, some cinnamon, sliced almonds (and a touch of rum if desired!) for that sweet-savory experience that hardly anyone can resist.

    A Tropical Peach Cocktail

    When I think vacation, I think light, breezy dresses, fancy shades and sun hats, and bronzed bodies laying by palm-lined beaches holding chilled, tropical drinks. Mojitos are definitely right at the top of that list of chilled, delicious vacation-ready drinks! I am using small batch, award-winning, vintage Jamaican rum from the Mezan family that was aged in ex-bourbon casks. Any aged rum connoisseur should want to try this!

    peach mojito using Mezan rum

    Makes 4 servings:

    • 1 large peach, stone removed and cut into chunks
    • ¼ c sugar
    • 2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
    • ¼ c fresh mint leaves
    • 2 c club soda, chilled
    • 1 c Mezan Jamaican rum

    Blend together peaches, sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Muddle mint leaves against the bottom of a glass pitcher until they're torn to release flavors. Fill up with rum, club soda and peach mixture and stir to combine. Pour into glasses over ice, then garnish with fresh mint leaves and peaches. Prost!

    Recipe for Peach & Brie Strudel

    Ingredients:

    • 1 package of puff pastry
    • 1 wedge of brie (7 oz or 200 g)
    • ¼ c (45 g) brown sugar
    • 4 peaches, stones removed, unpeeled, and medium diced
    • 30 g sliced almonds
    • 1 tablespoon flour
    • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
    • 1 shot of Mezan Jamaican rum (if desired)
    • 1 egg

    Method:

    1. Let puff pastry thaw according to instructions. I used the Dufour brand and had great results! Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius) and prep a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    2. On a floured work surface, unroll the pastry dough, layer sliced brie cheese down the middle (the long side).
    3. Combine other ingredients (except egg) in a bowl and stir to combine. Distribute evenly over the brie. Roll up the strudel, forming a log.
    4. Whisk together the egg and some cold water, then brush onto the strudel dough. Bake for 30 minutes or until the dough is golden and crispy on the outside. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Guten Appetit!

    Hallo, I'm Sophie!

    I am so happy that you are here at my German food and recipe blog named dirndl kitchen! Let's cook and bake authentic German recipes to help us feel closer to Germany!

    I moved from Germany to the United States in 2009 and soon started to terribly miss the German food (okay, my family, too)! I still miss a nice weekend brunch with crusty Brötchen (rolls) and Teilchen (pastries), Döner Kebab and German cake and coffee time at 15 o'clock! So I decided to educate my fellow Germany-missing friends by writing about German food and traditions. I do so in a fun way with easy-to-follow recipes! I hope you stay a while and bookmark some recipes, so we can cook and bake together.

    Mit viel Liebe (with much love)
