Tired of my same routine, I decided to step outside of my comfort zone and try something different! I’ve seen several recipes that involved a pre-made crescent dough, so I thought…ummm sounds easy enough! Lol! For the filling, I wanted to whip up something with tons of flavor!

Spinach and Prosciutto Pinwheels
Ingredients
- 12 oz can crescents
- 2 cups spinach
- 5 slices of prosciutto
- 1 tbsp oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 8 oz reduced fat cream cheese
- Salt/pepper to taste
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray or line with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Remove the crescent dough from the can and roll out dough onto a flat, covered surface. Do not knead dough or it will become too tough to work with.
- Once dough is on a flat surface, pinch together any separations in the dough and press together to make one long, even rectangular shape. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, on medium heat, add oil and garlic. Cook until garlic is fragrant and add prosciutto and spinach. Cook until spinach is tender and prosciutto is slightly crisp.
- Remove from heat and transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in cream cheese until all ingredients are combined. Season with salt/pepper to taste.
- Spread mixture evenly onto dough and roll into a long tube shape. Cut into approximately 12 rolls.
- Place rolls onto baking sheet and bake for about 17-20 minutes, or until slightly golden brown.
- Cool for approximately 5 minutes and Enjoy!

Oh my goodness. These sound amazing! I think I’d have a hard time keeping myself from eating the entire tray!
Thank you!! They were extremely delicious!! ?
Could you use puff pastry instead?
Yes, that should work just fine. ?
Can I make ahead freeze and heat them on day of event?
Yes! And I recommend adjusting the cooking time if baking them straight from the freezer.
I want to make these for a brunch. If I make ahead and freeze should I bake first then freeze or freeze them unbaked?
I would recommend preparing them, and then freezing. I wouldn’t bake them ahead of time.
So delicious and my husband loved them! I prepared half of them to enjoy the day I made them, and froze the rest, unbaked. Several days later I baked them straight from the freezer and they turned out exactly as the ones which were baked fresh. Only had to bake a few extra minutes to get golden.
I’m so glad that y’all enjoyed them!!
Any substitution suggestions for the spinach? 🙂
Thanks

I made these pinwheels I had a very difficult time when the crescent roll was at room. It was very difficult to cut and extremely messy. I will next time freeze it for easy cutting.
