Method
Turn the oven on at 160 degrees.

Place a new sheet of filo on top of the first sheet aand repeat the process. Top with another sheet of filo.Place the Brie in the center of the pastry and fold the pastry up around the cheese. Let the excess pastry fold gently on top of the Brie. Bake the brie on a baking tray lined with baking paper until golden and crispy - approximately 25 min.
Meanwhile prepare the blackberry compote. Place the sugar and vanilla pod in a small saucepan and cover the sugar with water. Careful to only just cover the sugar with water.

Remove the brie from the oven when golden and serve warm with the blackberry compote.
