Garlic-Herb Pinwheels

I’m always on the hunt for a recipe that fits the AFL moto — always simple, never plain — and this pinwheel recipe hits the mark. They are incredibly easy to prepare and were a huge hit at Jim’s Speakeasy party over the weekend. The best part is they can be made up to a day in advance and stored in an airtight container. If I were you, I’d definitely plan on making these for your holiday party this year.

Garlic-Herb Pinwheels {from Martha Stewart}

Ingredients

1/3 cup finely minced herbs, such as chives, parsley and mint
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and pepper
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, combine herbs, garlic and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. On a lightly floured work surface, unfold puff pastry. Spread pastry with herb mixture and roll up. With a sharp knife, cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Arrange rounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake until puffed and golden on edges, 15 minutes. Let cool on sheet on a wire rack, 10 minutes.
