Appetizers made with puff pastry are some of the best recipes you can serve your family and friends. Finger food that’s easy, tasty and can be made ahead of time are always tops in my book.
This is one of my favorites – yes to prosciutto and Parmesan! For 4 more versions go here. These recipes call for a sheet of puff pastry topped with various toppings to be rolled up tightly from both ends and meet in the middle. Then you cut the dough to make palmiers or double scrolls. I chose early on to make these into pinwheels, in other words I cut the palmiers in half and end up with pinwheels!
Prosciutto, Parmesan and Honey Mustard Pinwheels
- 1 sheet frozen Pepperidge Farms puff pastry, thawed (takes about 30 minutes)
- 3 tbsp. honey mustard or use your favorite mustard
- 3-4 oz. thinly sliced Prosciutto, trimmed and torn into pieces
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- egg wash prior to baking (1 egg + 2 tsp. water mixed well)
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Lightly spray with a non-stick cooking spray.
Sprinkle semolina or regular flour over a work surface. Unfold pastry carefully and roll into a triangle about 10×14-inches. The pastry will tend to crack but you can spritz the cracks with water, push the cracks together and then continue to roll it into the recommended size.
Spread a thin layer of mustard over the top of the pastry and scatter the Prosciutto over it. Sprinkle with Parmesan and press the cheese lightly into the prosciutto.
Cut the rectangle in half width-wise to make two. Using your hands gently roll each half into the center as tight as possible. It will resemble a double scroll. I then cut the palmiers in half to end up with pinwheels.
Cut the rolls into 1/2-inch or so slices and place cut side down on the baking sheet. Press lightly to flatten and brush lightly with egg wash.
Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden. Serve warm or at room temperature within an hour.
The rolls can be frozen prior to slicing and baking. When ready to serve; thaw and cut into slices and bake as above.

Wow, Im thinking of adding these to my Christmas party list! Another yummy one, Judy!❤️👍
Thanks Mary – so easy to make these with ingredients you like 🙂
Judy, they will be perfect to bring to my sister’s Christmas party! ❤️🎄
Those look great !
Thanks – these are always good!
These look great for holiday entertaining! Thanks for bringing them to the FF party!
Thanks Zeba – a quick, but delicious, appetizer to serve any time of the year!
Wow, Judi, I haven’t eaten one of those in a while and never with prosciutto and parmesan. I remember the bacon and cheddar cheese variety, this one sounds much better, Although I really like the bacon and cheddar ones. Got puff pastry in the freezer, prosciutto and honey mustard in the fridge. That means I have a cooking project for lunch tomorrow.
Thanks Ron – bacon is always good to use in any recipe! I’ve used ham, prosciutto and pepperoni but not bacon. I will have to try that next 🙂
Will you bring a batch of these to my house, Judy? I wanna. 😍
I know what you mean as they are so darn good 🙂
The “problem” with these is that there’s no way of stopping after only one or two!
I too use mustard for the savory ones, but love your use of honey-mustard even better. My next batch will no doubt have that!
These appetizers are great to make as you can use any ingredient you like. I agree “you can’t eat just one” 🙂
Thank you so much. This is an addition to our Christmas Eve Dinner. Problem solved for our appetizer. The things is.. I know I will eat plenty … ha ha ha
Thank you Mareliz – these appetizers are perfect little bites for any occasion. Count on eating plenty as they are that good 🙂
This is definitely a keeper Judi and perfect for holiday entertaining.
For sure Julie – I’ve been making different versions of these tasty appetizers for years.
I always keep a couple of Pepperidge Farm sheets in the freezer for quick appetizers or desserts like these. Love the ingredients in these savory ones. The sweetness of the honey mustard and the tartiness of the prosciutto sounds like a great combo.
Definitely a good combination Loretta! Puff pastry makes our lives easier for appetizers or desserts. 🙂 I occasionally use the puff pastry shells too.
Dear Judith, I love your recipe! Simple and delicious! I am going to save it for Christmas 🙂 Happy Holiday!!!
Thank you – using puff pastry makes some of the best appetizers! Happy Holidays to you 🙂
