With three main ingredients you can make this gorgeous giant puff pastry pinwheel in no time. Pesto and ricotta fill layers of puff pastry that are cut and twisted into a pinwheel that begs to be pulled apart!

Ingredients

  • 2 sheetss puff pastry
  • 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour , or as needed
  • 8.5 ounces ricotta cheese
  • 8.5 ounces pesto

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper and dust lightly with flour.

  2. 2

    Lay puff pastry on a flat work surface; cut a 12-inch circle from each sheet. Transfer 1 circle to the prepared baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Spread ricotta evenly over the pastry circle. Top with an even layer of pesto. Lay the second pastry circle on top. Set a small glass upside down in the middle of the circle.

  4. 4

    Cut the circle, away from the glass, into 4 equal quarters. Cut each quarter in half, then each eighth in half, to make 16 equal strips. Remove glass. Twist strips twice, two at a time, in the opposite direction. Pinch ends together. Repeat with remaining strips to make a pinwheel shape.

  5. 5

    Bake in the preheated oven until pastry is browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
