Ingredients
- 1 block feta cheese, crumbled (120g)
- 1 cup pitted Kalamata olives, sliced (80g)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (6g)
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1 large eggplant, thinly sliced (150g)
- 1 package whole wheat puff pastry, thawed (500g)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out puff pastry on a floured surface to a large rectangle, about 1/8 inch thick.
- Spread the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the center two-thirds of the pastry, leaving a 1-inch border around it.
- Arrange the sliced olives in a parallel pattern, slightly overlapping each other, within the feta's borders.
- Sprinkle garlic and oregano over the olive layer.
- Brush edges with egg wash. Starting from the long side, roll the pastry tightly but gently into a log shape.
- Place seam-side down on prepared baking sheet. Brush top lightly with remaining egg wash.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- Cut pinwheels into individual servings using a sharp knife. Serve warm or at room temperature.
