Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, toss in the chopped mushrooms and garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the mushrooms soften, then add the chopped spinach. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until wilted. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed mixture with cream cheese and shredded mozzarella. Stir until well combined.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet to about ¼ inch thick.
- Spread the mushroom and cheese mixture evenly over the pastry, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Carefully roll the pastry from one side to the other creating a log shape. Slice it into 1-inch pieces.
- Place the pinwheels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly beat the egg and brush the tops of each pinwheel with the egg wash.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until puffed and golden. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Substitutions: Swap the mushrooms for other vegetables like bell peppers or zucchini for a different flavor. Timing: Keep an eye on the colors of the pinwheels while they bake; a deep golden hue means they are done. Common mistakes: Avoid overstuffing the pinwheels for even cooking.
