Instructions:
1. Prep the Oven & Pastry
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle.
2. Add the Filling
(Optional) Spread a thin layer of mustard over the pastry.
Layer the ham slices evenly, followed by the shredded cheese.
Sprinkle with dried herbs (if using).
3. Roll & Slice
Tightly roll the pastry lengthwise into a log.
Using a sharp knife, slice into 12 equal pinwheels (about 1-inch thick).
4. Bake to Perfection
Place the pinwheels on the baking sheet, spaced 2 inches apart.
Brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until puffed and golden.
5. Serve & Enjoy!
Let cool slightly before serving. Best enjoyed warm!
Variations & Tips:
Flavor Twists:
Meat Swap: Try turkey, salami, or crispy bacon instead of ham.
Cheese Choices: Gouda, pepper jack, or feta add delicious variety.
Vegetarian Option: Replace ham with sautéed spinach, mushrooms, or roasted red peppers.
Extra Kick: Add a sprinkle of paprika, garlic powder, or chili flakes.
Pro Tips:
✔ Thaw pastry properly—overnight in the fridge for best results.
✔ Chill before baking if the dough gets too soft (15 mins in fridge).
✔ Serve with dips like honey mustard, ranch, or marinara.
✔ Storage:
Fridge: Keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Freezer: Freeze in a single layer, then store for up to 2 months.
Reheat: Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 10-15 mins until crispy.
Enjoy these flaky, cheesy pinwheels as a snack, appetizer, or party favorite!
