Calories 64 kcal
- 30 g pumpkin seeds
- 3 handfuls baby spinach washed and dried
- 2-3 tablespoon olive oil
- 30 g parmesan grated
- black pepper
- 2 sheets frozen puff pastry thawed
To make the pesto:
In a small blender, place the pumpkin seeds, spinach, parmesan and 2 tablespoon olive oil.
Pulse until you get a fine consistency. Scrape down the sides and check there are no whole pumpkin seeds to pose a choking risk for mini mouths.
Add an extra tablespoon oil if you prefer a runnier texture, blend again and then season with black pepper.
To make the pinwheels:
Preheat the oven to 200˚C/400˚F.
Spread half the pesto mixture evenly over the sheet of pastry, leaving a 1cm gap around the edges and roll up tightly.
Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into 1cm slices and then arrange - cut side up - on two baking trays lined with baking paper.
Cook for 12-15 minutes, until golden and crispy.
