Take note
Handle with care when handling the puff pastry - it can be delicate and tear easily.

1

Prepare the Spinach Filling

In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of chopped spinach, 1 cup of shredded cheese, and 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese. Mix everything together until well combined.

2

Assemble the Pinwheels

Unroll a sheet of thawed puff pastry onto a lightly floured surface. Spread the spinach and cheese filling evenly over the pastry, leaving a small border around the edges. Roll up the pastry tightly, starting from one of the shorter sides.

3

Chill and Cut

Place the rolled-up pastry in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes to firm up. Once chilled, remove it from the fridge and slice it into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Place the pinwheels on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

Bake to Perfection

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the pinwheels for 15-18 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed up. Keep an eye on them as they can quickly go from golden to burnt!

5

Serve and Enjoy

Once out of the oven, let the pinwheels cool slightly before serving. They can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature. Arrange them on a platter and watch them disappear!
