Ingredients
Cooking spray
1 (8-oz.) tube crescent dough
1/2 lb. deli sliced ham
2 tbsp. Dijon mustard
8 oz. sliced Swiss cheese
4 tbsp. butter, melted
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
2 tbsp. freshly chopped parsley
1 tsp. poppy seeds
Preparation
Step 1Preheat oven to 350°. Grease an 8-x-8" baking pan with cooking spray. Step 2On a lightly floured surface, unroll dough. Separate the sheet into rectangles and pinch together the perforations to seal. Spread mustard onto each rectangle and top with sliced ham and cheese. Starting with one short side, roll up each rectangle into a small log. Pinch edges to seal. Cut each roll into 5 to 6 slices. Place cut side up in baking pan. Step 3In a small bowl, whisk together butter, garlic powder, and parsley. Brush over pinwheels, then sprinkle poppy seeds on top. Step 4Bake until the rolls are golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
How do you make pinwheels? These are a true star in our appetizer book for how easy and customizable they are. All you need to do is roll out your store-bought crescent dough, add your desired fillings, roll up, cut and bake! The best part? These can be done with any cheese and deli meat. We throw cheddar into the mix with eggs in our breakfast pinwheels. Wanna try turkey and gouda? Amazing. Roast beef and horseradish cheddar? Sounds incredible, just like our French dip pinwheel. You want a holiday-themed one to impress your guests? We’ve got a Christmas tree pinwheel version too! You truly can’t go wrong with this adaptable app. How do I store pinwheels? If you manage to have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for around 4 days. We highly recommend reheating in the oven so the crescent rolls can crisp back up nicely. Can I freeze ham & cheese pinwheels? Yes! After baking and letting your pinwheels cool, cover in a freezer-safe container, then place in the freezer for around a month. Made this? Let us know how it went in the comments below!
