  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different fillings. In addition to the fillings suggested in the article, you could also try roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, or artichoke hearts.
  • Make sure the dough is nice and pliable before rolling it out. If the dough is too dry, it will crack. If the dough is too wet, it will be difficult to handle.
  • Roll the dough out thinly. This will help the pinwheels cook evenly.
  • Brush the dough with olive oil before baking. This will help the pinwheels brown nicely.
  • Serve the pinwheels warm or at room temperature. They can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
