Spinach Artichoke Pinwheels Recipe
Description
This recipe starts by combining thawed, drained chopped spinach and chopped artichoke hearts with mayonnaise, finely grated Parmesan, shredded Muenster cheese, onion and garlic powder, white pepper, and salt. The mixture has a creamy, savory profile with subtle herbal notes from the cheeses.
The filling is spread on rolled-out puff pastry sheets brushed with olive oil, then rolled tightly. After wrapping in plastic and chilling, the dough firms for easier slicing. The pinwheels are cut into one-inch slices placed on parchment-lined sheets and baked at 400°F until the pastry is puffed and lightly browned, producing crisp edges and a tender, cheesy filling.
These pinwheels make for a rich appetizer or snack that showcases a balance of flaky pastry and creamy vegetable-cheese filling. Serving warm maximizes the contrast between crisp pastry and soft interior.
