Holiday Pistachio Brie Bites (with Collagen Fig Honey Glaze)

If you're looking for a quick holiday appetizer that tastes gourmet but comes together in minutes, these Pistachio Brie Bites are it.

They're flaky, buttery, melty, sweet, salty, and festive - the perfect little bite for Thanksgiving, Christmas, holiday parties, or cozy nights in.

I added a tiny secret ingredient that makes these even better:
½ scoop of Vitauthority Multi-Collagen stirred right into the warm fig-honey glaze. It dissolves perfectly, doesn't change the flavor at all, and gives the glaze an extra smooth, glossy finish - plus a little protein boost. I've been using this collagen for over a year now and love how easily it blends into holiday recipes like this.

Let's make them - you're going to want to save this one.

Instructions

1. Prep

Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Cut the Puff Pastry

Cut puff pastry into 2-inch squares (12-16 total). Arrange on your baking sheet.

3. Add the Brie

Cut Brie into ¾-inch cubes and place one cube in the center of each pastry square.

4. Pistachios + Egg Wash

Sprinkle pistachios on top and press gently.
Brush the pastry edges with egg wash.

5. Bake

Bake 12-15 minutes, until puffed, golden, and the Brie is soft and melty.

6. Make the Glaze

While they bake, whisk together:

• fig jam

• honey

• ½ scoop Vitauthority Multi-Collagen

Warm for 5-7 seconds in the microwave to help it dissolve smoothly.
Add warm water if you need it thinner.

7. Finish + Serve

Drizzle the warm bites with the collagen glaze.
Add flaky salt, extra pistachios, and herbs.

Serve immediately - they disappear FAST.

Tips & Variations

• Use triple-cream Brie for extra meltiness.

• Swap pistachios for pecans or walnuts if you prefer.

• Add a tiny pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon for a warm holiday flavor.

• Double the batch for parties - trust me.

How Vitauthority Collagen Fits

This recipe uses ½ scoop of Vitauthority Multi-Collagen directly in the glaze, giving you:

• a glossy finish

• an easy protein boost

• zero flavor change

• a natural way to incorporate collagen during holiday cooking

It blends beautifully into warm sauces, glazes, and marinades - one of my favorite "sneaky" ways to use it.

Storage

These bites are best fresh but can be reheated at 350°F for 5-6 minutes.
Glaze can be prepped 3-4 days ahead.
