Never get tired of simple creamy spinach and artichoke, pinwheels.
Not the first recipe post that I have written about simple creamy spinach and artichoke. I grew up loving spinach and its place in spinach and artichoke dip. Now I am finding all the different ways I can use that delicious mixture. In this case, it is pinwheels. These pastry bites are not only simple, but bring all the flavor. Everyone needs simple creamy spinach and artichoke pinwheels on the menu!

Store bought and that is ok.
I know you can easily whip up pastry dough if you really want. I went for the easy route. The store bought puff pastry dough and that is quite alright with me! My go to puff pastry dough sheets has always been these Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry Sheets, but any other pastry dough sheet should be good. Let’s just say that these Pepperidge Farm Spinach Artichoke Pinwheels are more than delicious!


The key to using puff pastry dough sheets is to allow them to thaw at room temperature before using. I normally store my dough sheets in the freezer, so this takes about 15 minutes. If you don’t allow them to soften up some, then the sheets will be too brittle to work with and roll up.
Make the creamy spinach and artichoke dip ahead of time.
Another thing I love about this recipe is that it is a good one for prepping ahead. If you want to make the creamy spinach and artichoke dip beforehand, you can! You also can save some of this dip for actually dipping. Man, it is so good! These spinach artichoke pinwheels with cream cheese are the perfect combo.

I am sharing the recipe for creamy spinach and artichoke dip here. This is what you will use for the filling for these pastry pinwheels.
Assembly ahead.
Assembling these pinwheels is actually really easy. Once you have allowed the pastry dough sheet to thaw some at room temperature, you can slowly roll it out only parchment paper. To prevent the dough from sticking to the parchment paper, you can lightly dust the surface with flour. LIGHTLY though.

As for the spinach and artichoke dip, you want it to be at room temperature. This is so that it is spreadable, but also not to hot where it starts softening the pastry sheet before you can actually work with it. An easy assembly for these simple creamy spinach and artichoke pinwheels.
