Equipment
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment paper
- Plastic wrap
- Serrated knife
Ingredients
Pastry & Filling
- 1 sheet puff pastry or crescent dough sheet, thawed
- 0.5 lb deli-sliced turkey ham
- 6-8 slices Swiss or Gruyere cheese
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Topping
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure a crisp base.
- Lay the dough out on a flat, lightly floured surface and roll into a rectangle.
- Spread a thin, even layer of Dijon mustard across the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border at the edges.
- Layer the turkey ham slices over the mustard, followed by an even layer of cheese slices.
- Roll the dough tightly starting from the long edge to create a uniform log.
- Wrap the log in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes; this is crucial for achieving clean slices.
- Using a sharp serrated knife, cut the chilled log into 1-inch thick rounds.
- Place the pinwheels seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, combine melted butter, poppy seeds, and garlic powder. Brush this mixture generously over each pinwheel.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
- Let cool slightly on a wire rack to maintain texture and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
