Description

These flaky Mediterranean Pastry Pinwheels are filled with creamy feta, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and olives. Easy to make and bursting with flavor, they’re the perfect appetizer for parties or holiday gatherings.

Ingredients

Units Scale

For the pinwheels:

  • 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed if frozen)
  • 1 cup (100g) fresh spinach, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup (75g) crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup (40g) chopped sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed, drained)
  • 1/4 cup (40g) chopped black or Kalamata olives
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling:
    • In a medium bowl, mix the chopped spinach, feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, garlic, oregano, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Assemble the pinwheels:
    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    • Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface into a 10×12-inch rectangle.
    • Spread the filling evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a 1-inch border on one long edge.
  3. Roll and slice:
    • Starting with the long edge without the border, roll the pastry tightly into a log. Seal the edge by brushing it with a little beaten egg and pressing gently.
    • Chill the log in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to make slicing easier.
    • Slice the log into 1/2-inch thick rounds and place them on the prepared baking sheet, cut-side up.
  4. Bake:
    • Brush the tops of the pinwheels with the remaining beaten egg.
    • Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
  5. Serve:
    • Allow the pinwheels to cool slightly before serving. They can be served warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of grated Parmesan to the filling.
  • These pinwheels can be made ahead of time: assemble and freeze the uncooked log, then slice and bake straight from the freezer, adding 2-3 minutes to the baking time.
  • Substitute spinach with arugula or kale if preferred.
