The Method

1
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet into a 12x10 inch rectangle.
3
Spread the cranberry sauce evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a small border (about 1/2 inch) bare on all sides.
4
Layer the thinly sliced brie cheese evenly over the cranberry sauce.
5
Starting from one of the longer edges, tightly roll the puff pastry into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.
6
Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the log into 1-inch thick pinwheels.
7
Place the pinwheels cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
8
Brush the tops of the pinwheels with the beaten egg wash.
9
Sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning, if using.
10
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the pinwheels are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Chef's Tips

For a less sweet version, use unsweetened cranberry sauce or add a sprinkle of black pepper to the filling.

Feel free to substitute the brie with another creamy cheese like camembert or goat cheese.

These pinwheels are best served warm, but they can also be enjoyed at room temperature.

Store leftover pinwheels in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
