Description
Deliciously warm and cheesy pinwheels made with crescent roll dough, ham, and cheese, perfect for parties, snacks, or a fun lunch.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 can crescent roll dough (The classic refrigerated kind)
- 6-8 slices ham (Thinly sliced for easy rolling)
- 1-1.5 cups shredded cheese (Swiss or provolone for best flavor)
Optional Add-Ins
- Dijon mustard or softened cream cheese (For spreading)
- Seasonings like garlic powder, onion powder, or Italian seasoning (For extra flavor)
- Optional toppings like sesame seeds or everything bagel seasoning (For a finishing touch)
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unroll the crescent dough and press the seams together to form a large rectangle.
- Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard or softened cream cheese over the dough.
- Layer the ham evenly across the dough, followed by the cheese.
- Starting from the long side, roll the dough into a tight log. If the dough is sticky, chill it in the fridge for 10 minutes.
- Slice the log into 10-12 pieces and place them cut side down on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 11-15 minutes, until golden and bubbly.
- Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
Avoid overfilling to prevent unrolling. Chill the roll before slicing for cleaner pieces. Use parchment paper to avoid sticking.
