Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface until rectangular and about 1/8 inch thick.
Sprinkle the diced bacon evenly over the rolled-out pastry, followed by the shredded sharp cheddar cheese, leaving a small border around the edges.
Starting from one long edge, roll the pastry tightly into a log, ensuring the seam is on the bottom.
Slice the rolled pastry into 1-inch thick rounds and arrange them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them apart. Chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
After chilling, bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
Remove the pinwheels from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes, and serve warm.

Notes

These pinwheels can be customized by using different proteins or cheeses as desired. Serve with dipping sauces for added flavor.
