Method

Step‑by‑Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
If using fresh spinach, sauté it over medium heat until wilted, about 2-3 minutes, then drain excess moisture.
In a mixing bowl, combine wilted spinach, crumbled feta, and any additional ingredients. Mix well.
On a floured surface, unroll the puff pastry and spread the filling evenly, leaving a ½ inch border.
Roll the puff pastry tightly into a log shape and cut into 1-inch wide pinwheels.
Chill the pinwheels in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes before baking.
Bake the pinwheels for 15-20 minutes until they are golden and puffed.
