FAQ
Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes, assemble the sandwiches and refrigerate up to 24 hours before baking. Add 2-3 minutes to baking time if cooking from cold.
What if I don't have Brie cheese?
Substitute cream cheese, camembert, or mild goat cheese. Cream cheese will be less creamy but still delicious.
How long do leftovers keep?
Store in refrigerator for 2-3 days. Reheat in 350F oven for 5-8 minutes to restore crispiness.
