Description

Cranberry Feta Pinwheels are a sweet, tangy, and creamy appetizer perfect for any holiday gathering. Made with cream cheese, feta, dried cranberries, and fresh green onions, all rolled up in tortillas, these festive roll-ups are easy to make and irresistibly delicious.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces (1 package) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries, chopped
  • 1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch size)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling:
    • In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, crumbled feta, chopped cranberries, and green onions. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly combined.
  2. Spread the Mixture:
    • Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread 1/4 of the filling evenly across the surface, leaving a small border around the edges.
  3. Roll Tightly:
    • Starting from one edge, roll the tortilla tightly into a cylinder. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
  4. Chill the Rolls:
    • Wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  5. Slice and Serve:
    • Remove plastic wrap and slice each roll into 1-inch thick pinwheels. Arrange on a serving platter and garnish as desired.

Notes

  • For a crunchier texture, add chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans to the filling.
  • Use gluten-free tortillas if needed for dietary restrictions.
  • Make-ahead: These pinwheels can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance. Store wrapped in plastic until ready to serve.
