Ingredients
Scale
-
1 package of crescent roll dough (8 oz)
-
1/2 lb sliced deli ham (thinly sliced)
-
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or mozzarella)
-
2 tbsp Dijon mustard (optional)
-
1 tbsp melted butter
-
1 tsp Italian seasoning
-
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out the crescent roll dough and press seams to form a single sheet.
- Spread Dijon mustard over the dough if using.
- Layer ham slices evenly over the dough, followed by shredded cheese.
- Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into 1-inch pinwheels.
- Place pinwheels on the baking sheet and brush with melted butter.
- Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and garlic powder.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and cheese is melted.

Notes
- To prevent the pinwheels from unrolling, chill the rolled log for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat at 350°F for 5-7 minutes.
- Freeze unbaked pinwheels for up to 1 month. Bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
