Instructions
a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Remove the puff pastry from your fridge and allow to come up to room temperature.
b) Unfold the puff pastry onto a chopping board, keeping it on its baking paper.
c) Spread the fresh pesto evenly over the pastry in a thin layer, leaving a 1cm border on all sides.
d) Using the baking paper to help you, carefully roll the pastry from the long side to enclose the filling and make a pastry log.
a) Trim (and discard) 1cm from each end of the pastry log to neaten, then carefully slice into 2cm thick rounds. You'll make approximately 12-16 rounds. TIP: A serrated knife makes slicing easier!
b) Place the rounds, cut-side up, onto a lined baking tray. Space them well apart so they can puff up.
c) Brush the pastry pinwheels with a little oil.
d) When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf of your oven until golden, 20-25 mins.
a) While the pesto pinwheels bake, remove the Camembert from its packaging, then pop it into a large square of foil. Scrunch the edges together around the sides, but leave the foil open at the top.
c) Place the Camembert onto a lined baking tray. When the pinwheels have been in the oven for 5-10 mins, bake on the middle shelf until the cheese has melted, 15-20 mins.
c) When everything is baked, carefully slide the Camembert onto a serving platter. Arrange the pesto pinwheels around the Camembert for dipping and scooping.
Enjoy!
