Puff Pastry Pinwheels with Spinach and Cheese

Prepare the ingredients. This is what will be on your plate – crispy spinach pinwheels with cheese made from puff pastry; prepare the ingredients in advance so the work goes smoothly. Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Soak the spinach in cold water to loosen it and separate the leaves.

Prepare the spinach. Thoroughly squeeze out the spinach and briefly sauté it in a pan with a little olive oil for about 2–3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and let it cool slightly.

Prepare the pastry. Roll out the pastry on a work surface and spread it evenly with cream cheese, then scatter the spinach over it.

Roll up the pastry. Sprinkle with half of the cheese and roll the pastry tightly into a log.

Cut the pinwheels. Slice the log into individual pinwheels and arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake the pinwheels. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and bake in the oven at 200 °C for about 20 minutes, until golden.

Serve. Serve while still warm.
