Notes
Helpful Hints
Make these pinwheel pastries ahead of time and keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days. You can also make and freeze these pastries for up to 3 months.
When ready to use them, reheat in the oven for 10 minutes to make crispy and delicious again.
- Make sure your pastry is thawed properly if using it from frozen. Otherwise it will crack when rolling it out to the sheet form.
- Don't cut the pinwheels into thicker than 1-1.5 cm slices. If you make the slices too thick, they puff up and don't remain in a pretty pinwheel shape.
