Ingredients

• 1 piece Puff pastry sheet
• 100 grams Feta cheese, crumbled
• 50 grams Dried cranberries (craisins)
• 50 grams Walnuts, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 piece Egg, beaten
• 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Lightly dust your countertop with flour, and roll out the puff pastry sheet into a 12x12-inch square if it isn't pre-rolled.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the crumbled feta, dried cranberries, chopped walnuts, honey, and freshly chopped parsley. Mix until well combined.

Step 4

Spread the feta mixture evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.

Step 5

Starting from one edge, carefully roll the puff pastry into a tight log. Use a little water along the far edge to seal the seam.

Step 6

Place the roll seam-side down and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to firm up, making it easier to slice.

Step 7

Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into 12 equal slices, approximately 1-inch thick each.

Step 8

Place the pinwheels cut-side up onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.

Step 9

Brush the tops and sides of the pinwheels with the beaten egg to help them bake into a golden brown color.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pinwheels are puffed and golden brown.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. These pinwheels can be served warm or at room temperature.
