For an extra layer of flavor, consider using a high-quality cranberry sauce or making your own with fresh cranberries, orange zest, and a hint of spice. Toasting the walnuts enhances their nutty flavor and adds a delightful crunch. Toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, or in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, until fragrant and lightly golden. These Cranberry Brie Bites can be assembled ahead of time and baked just before serving, making them the perfect stress-free appetizer for any occasion.
