These savory ham and cheese puff pastry pizza pinwheels take just a few minutes to assemble with store-bought pastry. Top the rolled-out pastry with slices of ham and hard cheese, roll it up, and cut it into pinwheels. Arrange them in a baking pan, brush with beaten egg yolk, and sprinkle with pizza seasoning or oregano. Bake at 200 °C (400 °F) until golden, and vary the filling to taste.

  5. Tip: Vary the filling or add corn, bacon, mushrooms, olives, or onion to the ham and cheese. You can also spread the pastry with tomato sauce or ketchup.

Tip: Chill the rolled pastry briefly before slicing so it firms up and doesn't get compressed as you cut it, helping the pinwheels keep their round shape.
