Ingredients

• 2 sheets puff pastry sheets
• 8 oz cream cheese
• 2 tbsp ranch seasoning mix
• 8 slices sliced deli turkey
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup baby spinach leaves
• 1 medium, diced red bell pepper
• 1 egg
• 1 tbsp water

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Take the puff pastry sheets out of the freezer and allow them to thaw at room temperature for about 10 minutes, or until they are pliable but still cool.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese with the ranch seasoning mix until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

On a clean, floured surface, unfold one puff pastry sheet. Use a rolling pin to gently smooth and extend it slightly, ensuring an even surface.

Step 5

Spread half of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.

Step 6

Layer 4 slices of deli turkey over the cream cheese, followed by 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup of baby spinach leaves, and half of the diced red bell pepper.

Step 7

Starting from one of the longer edges, tightly roll up the puff pastry into a log. Pinch the seam to seal it and place the roll seam-side down.

Step 8

Repeat the steps with the second puff pastry sheet and the remaining filling ingredients.

Step 9

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush the outside of each log lightly with the egg wash to ensure a golden and shiny finish.

Step 10

Using a sharp, serrated knife, slice each log into 8 even pieces, approximately 1-inch thick.

Step 11

Arrange the slices cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each pinwheel to allow for expansion during baking.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until the pinwheels are puffed and golden brown.

Step 13

Remove from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a serving plate.

Step 14

Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your Perfect Pinwheels!
