Cranberry and Feta Pinwheels

Cranberry and Feta Pinwheels consist of a creamy mixture of cream cheese, crumbled feta, dried sweetened cranberries, and green onion spread on large flour tortillas. Rolled tightly and chilled, the pinwheels are sliced into bite-sized rounds combining tart cranberry, salty feta, and fresh onion flavors with a soft tortilla base, making an appealing cold appetizer or snack.

Description

This recipe blends softened cream cheese with crumbly feta cheese, sweetened dried cranberries, and chopped green onions to create a flavorful spread. The filling balances tartness, saltiness, and a mild onion bite, resulting in a creamy, slightly chunky texture. The mixture is evenly spread over large wheat or spinach flour tortillas, which add mild flavor and color.

Rolling the tortillas tightly around the filling and refrigerating for at least an hour firms the log, making clean slicing possible without the filling squishing out. The pinwheels, when cut into approximately 12 slices per roll, make elegant finger foods that are easy to serve at gatherings or as snacks.

They can be prepared a few days in advance, with refrigeration preserving the texture and melding flavors. The recipe advises using full-fat or regular feta for moisture balance, as reduced-fat feta tends to be too dry for the mixture.

Notes

  • The pinwheel log can be made a couple of days ahead and sliced just before serving for best freshness and shape.
