Have you ever been hosting a party and wanted a great appetizer recipe that would be sure to wow your guests? Well, this one might be it! Read on for all of the details on this delicious dish!
I have a lot of great appetizer recipes. My favorite of all time is my Crab Cake recipe. It is amazing. However, the crab cake recipe takes time. Sometimes we need an easy, go-to, for-sure appetizer. You know the kind you can throw together that tastes amazing and looks like you spent hours making it?
I am so excited to share the Best Appetizer recipe. It’s Honey Brie with Pomegranates. Why do I like it so much? It is so easy to make and can be prepared when guests knock on your door. Plus these taste simply amazing.

Olive and Linen sent me some of their wonderful Turkish cotton dish towels. I love the colors, styles and design. All of my towels have fringe on them and can I just say how much I love that?
The best thing about this recipe is you can make the won ton shells in advance, freeze them and pull them out of the refrigerator at a moments notice.
For our party, I cut an entire round of brie into tiny pieces.
To make day of party as stress-free as possible, I put the won ton shells in a baking sheet (with a lid). As my guests begin to arrive, I can pop them into the oven and make a batch!
Here is the the printable recipe.
Honey Brie with Pomegranates
Ingredients
- 40 small won ton wrappers
- 1 small brie round
- 80 pomegranate seeds
- 1/4 cup honey
Instructions
Cut the won ton wrappers with a small round biscuit cutter. Spray a tart pan with cooking spray. Place each won ton in a small muffin tin and cook for 3 minutes at 300 degrees until just slightly browned. Set aside or freeze.
Cut the skin off the brie and cut in to 1/2 inch cubes. Place in the won ton cups and cook till melted, about five minutes. Top with a small splash of honey and top with two pomegranate seeds.
NOTE:
I actually bake the won ton cups in advance and then freeze them until the day of our party.

Favorite on your blog I’m looking forward to trying: your crab cakes. My favorite one to consume: Filipino egg rolls, called lumpia!❤️
You will die when you try these crab cakes. They are amazing.
I have heard of lumpia! Maybe I will get to try it someday. My favorite is a jalapeño jelly poured over a block of cream cheese, served with a tray of crackers. Simple yet delicious.
I have made that appetizer so many times. It is so delicious!
The Crab Cake recipe is my favorite!
Oh yes, it is really good.
The brie wonton receipe looks delish! One of my favorites is artichoke spinach dip baked and served with your favorite cracker!
Oh I love that one too!
Those do look tasty! My favorite is probably spicy nuts – easy to make ahead and addictive
I have been gifted those and they are so good. I need to make them.
Love your recipes and your blog! Favorite appetizer to make – Bacon Wrapped Water Chestnuts!
Thanks you so much. And those sound so good.
One of my favorites is goat cheese spread in the small pepper poppers then BBQd. Oh my they are so delicious

really simple appetizer is Costco meatballs cooked in a sauce of grape jelly and chili sauce
Yes! I have that recipe but haven’t tried it yet.
These sounds just delicious! I will be saving to try for later!!
Good for you Megan. Let em know what you think.
I love ❤️ fresh fruit 🍎 or vegetables as an appetizer. With a yummy dip like sour cream and onion for veggies. I know not original or anything but I think they can be arranged very festive and look wonderful. I’m a very simple eater. But the appetizers on this blog look 👀 wonderful!
That is such a great idea.
My favorite, easy appetizer is a Honey & Pistachio Goat Cheese..delicious but I must try the crab cakes!
You will love them!
You make everything seem so doable, Leslie! I read the title and thought it was too fancy for me to make, but this looks really good and easy to do. You are the queen of holiday baking, girl!
I promise they are easy to make! Make a batch of the won ton shells and keep them in the freezer. Then you can make them any time,
These look so good…and so easy! I have to say I’m a crab cake fan, they’re my favorite!
