Peel core and halve the apple.
Carefully place the apple in the caramel and cook for two minutes on each side

Place wheel of Alouette® Baby Brie® in the center.
Top Brie with one full half of the caramelized granny smith apple and quarter the remaining
half and place on the brie to form a dome shape.

Brush with egg wash and refrigerate for twenty minutes.
