Description

Delicious bite-sized pinwheels filled with a creamy spinach dip mixture, wrapped in flaky pastry.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bag frozen chopped spinach (10 oz), thawed and squeezed dry
  • 1 block cream cheese (8 oz), at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed but cold
  • 1 egg, for egg wash

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, blend together cream cheese, Parmesan, mayonnaise, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until smooth.
  2. Incorporate the squeezed spinach into the mixture until evenly combined.
  3. Roll out the cold puff pastry into a rectangle on a floured surface.
  4. Spread the spinach cream mixture evenly over the pastry, leaving one edge free to seal.
  5. Roll the pastry up tightly, then wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  6. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the chilled log into half-inch rounds and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Beat the egg and brush over the tops of the pinwheels.
  8. Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden brown and puffy.

Notes

For a lighter version, substitute Greek yogurt for mayonnaise. Feel free to add fresh herbs or other ingredients as desired.
