Spinach & Artichoke Pinwheel Christmas Tree
This Pinwheel Christmas tree is the perfect appetizer for holidays! Simple recipe, quick and easy.
Ingredients
- 1 8oz Tube of crossaint dough
- 1 1/2 cup Finely chopped spinach I used frozen
- 3 Medium artichoke hearts I used canned
- 1/2 cup Ricotta cheese
- 2 tbsp Parmasean cheese
- Salt, pepper,garlic salt, basil, paprika All to taste
- Optional: Grape tomatoes for the tree ornaments
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F and line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Finely chop the spinach and artichoke hearts.
- In medium bowl, add spinach, artichoke hearts, ricotta cheese, and spices. Mix all together. Set aside.
- Roll out croissant dough out. Get a rolling pin and roll dough out evenly. You can pinch the seams to make sure dough stays together. This will help when you start rolling it.
- Spread the bowl mixture evenly on the dough sheet.
- Gently roll up the dough sheet starting from one end to the other end. (If you roll lengthwise, you can have more servings.)
- Very carefully, cut the roll to 1/2 inch -3/4inch slices. (Tip: After each cut, spin the roll a little bit again so that your roll wont start to flatten and maintains its shape)
- Arrange the slices in the form of a Christmas tree on your parchment paper and bake for 25 minutes or until well done. (Optional is sliced grape tomatoes)
- Sprinkle some parmesan cheese and enjoy!
