Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, unroll the puff pastry, pressing out any creases carefully.
Spread the softened cream cheese evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a 1-inch border.
Sprinkle cranberry sauce or dried cranberries over the cream cheese layer, then crumble feta on top.
Chop fresh herbs and sprinkle over the cranberry and feta mixture.
Roll the puff pastry tightly from one long edge and slice into 1-inch pieces.
Place the pinwheels cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring space between them.
Whisk one egg and brush it gently over the tops of the pinwheels.
Bake for 18-22 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.
