Ham and Cheese Pinwheels are a delightful appetizer or snack that combines the savory flavors of ham and cheese with the buttery, flaky goodness of puff pastry. This dish has its roots in French cuisine, where similar pastry-based snacks are popular. It’s a versatile recipe that’s perfect for parties, picnics, or even a casual family gathering. The beauty of these pinwheels lies in their simplicity and the ability to customize them to suit different tastes, making them a favorite among both novice and experienced cooks.
These Ham and Cheese Pinwheels pair wonderfully with a fresh green salad, perhaps with a light vinaigrette to balance the richness of the pastry. For a more substantial meal, consider serving them alongside a hearty soup, like tomato bisque or creamy potato leek. If you’re hosting a gathering, a platter of assorted pickles and olives can add a nice tangy contrast to the pinwheels.
