Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Unroll the thawed puff pastry onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out to ensure even thickness.
Combine softened cream cheese, crumbled feta, and chopped fresh herbs in a mixing bowl until creamy.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the puff pastry, then sprinkle cranberries on top.
Starting from the long edge, tightly roll the pastry into a log shape and slice into ½-inch pieces.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange pinwheels on it, brushing tops with egg wash if desired.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Let cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving warm.
