A sprinkle or sprig of fresh thyme completes the look of this easy appetizer.

Brown mustard is tangy and slightly sweet, but whole-grain mustard will work well too.

Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

Spread 1 teaspoon mustard in each of 6 evenly spaced areas on the baking sheet.

Top each smear of mustard with 4 shingled apple slices.

Top each apple pile with 2 slices Brie; sprinkle each pile with thyme.

Roll out puff pastry pieces to fit over the filling, (about 4-inch squares).

Press the puff pastry pieces around each filling mound; the edges should be touching the parchment.

Brush the tops with egg.

Bake until nicely browned, 20 to 25 minutes.

Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Invert the pastries and garnish with thyme, if desired.
