# What You'll Need:
→ Puff Pastry
01 - 1 sheet ready-rolled puff pastry, thawed (approx. 8.8 oz)
→ Sauce & Cheese
02 - 3 tablespoons pizza sauce or marinara
03 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (approx. 3.5 oz)
→ Toppings
04 - About 24 slices mini pepperoni or regular pepperoni (approx. 1.75 oz)
05 - 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
→ For Finishing
06 - 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
07 - 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs or oregano (optional)
# How to Make It:
01 - Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
02 - Unroll the thawed puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface, positioning the longer side toward you.
03 - Spread pizza sauce evenly over the pastry, leaving a ½ inch border around the edges.
04 - Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese uniformly over the sauce layer.
05 - Distribute pepperoni slices evenly over the cheese. Optionally, add grated Parmesan and dried Italian herbs.
06 - Starting from the long edge, tightly roll the pastry into a log and pinch the seam to seal.
07 - Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into ½ inch thick slices. Place each pinwheel cut side up on the prepared tray, spaced slightly apart.
08 - Brush the top of each pinwheel with the beaten egg to promote browning.
09 - Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until pinwheels are puffed and golden brown.
10 - Allow the pinwheels to cool slightly before serving.
