Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry thawed
- 2 Tbsp dijon mustard (30g)
- 9 oz. Black Forest ham thin sliced, ~6-8 slices
- 6 oz. Swiss cheese ~6 slices
- 2 Tbsp powdered sugar
- Raspberry or strawberry jam for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unroll your puff pastry over a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper. If needed, use a rolling pin to roll so the rectangle is roughly 10 x 12-inches.
- Brush the dijon mustard evenly on top (or spread with a spatula).
- Layer the sliced ham and then the sliced cheese.
- Roll up tightly, from long end to long end. Trim the edges. Cut in half with a serrated knife and then cut into half again. Then cut all into 1/2-inch pinwheels.
- Place pinwheels on the baking sheet 1-inch apart. Bake for 18-20 minutes, until golden brown.
- Let cool for 5 minutes then transfer to a plate. Add jam to a little serving dish.
- Sprinkle pinwheels with powdered sugar, serve with the jam and enjoy!
Notes
- To store: Place the cooled pinwheels in an airtight container. They’ll stay fresh for about 4-5 days.
- To freeze: Let them cool completely. Then, place them in a freezer-safe bag or container and freezer for up to 2-3 months.
- To reheat:
- Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the pinwheels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and heat for about 10-12 minutes, or until warmed through and crispy.
- Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and heat the pinwheels for about 3-4 minutes, checking to ensure they don’t overcook.
- Microwave: Heat for 20-30 seconds or until just warmed through.
