🎉 Cranberry Feta Pinwheels
Servings: 24 pinwheels (approx.)
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Chill Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
🧾 Ingredients:
8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
1 cup dried cranberries, chopped
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
¼ cup green onions, finely chopped
4 large (10-inch) flour tortillas
👩🍳 Instructions:
1. Make the Filling
In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, chopped cranberries, crumbled feta, and chopped green onions. Mix well until evenly distributed and smooth.
2. Assemble the Wraps
Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface or cutting board. Spread about ¼ of the mixture evenly over the entire tortilla, reaching close to the edges.
3. Roll and Chill
Roll the tortilla up tightly like a log. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to help them firm up for easier slicing.
4. Slice into Pinwheels
Once chilled, unwrap and use a sharp serrated knife to slice each roll into ½-inch pieces. Discard (or snack on!) the uneven ends.
✅ Tips & Notes:
Tortilla Choice: Use fresh, soft tortillas to prevent cracking while rolling.
Feta Tip: Crumble the feta finely so it spreads more evenly throughout the filling.
Flavor Boost: Add a pinch of black pepper or a dash of garlic powder to the cream cheese mixture for an extra layer of flavor.
Make Ahead: These pinwheels can be made the night before and stored in the fridge. Just slice before serving.
Variation: Add a handful of chopped baby spinach or roasted red peppers for extra color and nutrients.
Serving Suggestion: Arrange on a platter with some whole cranberries or rosemary sprigs for a holiday feel.
