Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the halved cherry tomatoes and a pinch of salt and pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the tomatoes soften and begin to caramelize. Set aside to cool slightly.
Step 2
Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface into a 12×10-inch rectangle. Spread the caramelized tomatoes evenly over the pastry, leaving a 1-inch border on one long side. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and dried oregano over the tomatoes for rich flavors.
Step 3
Starting from the long side opposite the border, roll the pastry tightly into a log. Brush the exposed edge with the beaten egg to seal the roll. Slice the log into 1/2-inch thick rounds and place them cut-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 4
Brush the tops of the Tomato and Feta Pinwheels with the remaining egg wash. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown. Serve warm for the best flavor, allowing guests to enjoy these flaky appetizers fresh from the oven.
