Puff Pastry Pinwheels with Salmon (only 4 ingredients!)

Ingredients

  • 1 rolle blatterteig
  • 3.3 oz krauterfrischkase
  • 6.7 oz raucherlachs
  • 1 Egg yolk
  • Dill

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200 degrees (top and bottom heat) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Roll out the puff pastry and spread it completely with the cream cheese. Distribute the smoked salmon evenly over the top.

  3. 3

    Roll the dough tightly from the long side.

  4. 4

    Cut the roll into 0,5-1 cm wide pinwheels with a very sharp knife. Place them on the baking sheet with some space between them and brush the tops with beaten egg yolk.

  5. 5

    Bake for about 20 minutes, until the salmon pinwheels are golden brown and crispy. Garnish with fresh dill, if desired, and enjoy.

Ago's Notes

  • Adjust the salt to taste, depending on the salt content of the ingredients.

Let your hands work their magic as you shape the pinwheels - the balance of fat, salt, and smoke will show you why this creation, made with just four ingredients, unfolds so much flavor. Enjoy these versatile snacks, which are a twist on Italian-style canapés but with a fresh twist.
