Ingredients
- 1 sheet (17.3 oz) frozen puff pastry, thawed
- 10 oz frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp salt (or to taste)
- 1/8 tsp black pepper (or to taste)
- 1 large egg, whisked with 1 tbsp water (for egg wash)
Instructions
- 1. Thaw and prepare the spinach: Thaw frozen spinach and squeeze out all excess water using a clean kitchen towel. Finely chop the squeezed spinach.
- 2. Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, chopped spinach, feta, Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- 3. Roll out pastry: On a lightly floured surface, unfold one sheet of thawed puff pastry. Gently roll it into a 10×12-inch rectangle.
- 4. Spread filling: Spread the spinach and cheese mixture evenly over the pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch border on one long edge.
- 5. Roll and chill: Starting from the long side opposite the bare edge, tightly roll the pastry into a log. Pinch the seam to seal. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
- 6. Slice pinwheels: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Using a sharp knife, slice the chilled log into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
- 7. Bake: Arrange pinwheels on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush tops with egg wash. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
- 8. Cool and serve: Let cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm.
