Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
- 1 cup feta cheese
- 0.5 cup kalamata olives, pitted and chopped
- 4 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 large egg, beaten
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface. Use a rolling pin to gently smooth out the folds and create an even layer.
In a medium bowl, combine the feta cheese, cream cheese, chopped olives, parsley, dill, and garlic powder. Mix well until evenly combined.
Spread the filling mixture evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
Starting from one of the long sides, carefully roll the puff pastry into a tight log. Use your fingers to pinch and seal the edges.
Place the rolled log seam-side down on a cutting board and slice it into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
Arrange the pinwheels on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each.
Brush the tops of the pinwheels with the beaten egg to enhance browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pinwheels are golden brown and puffed.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
