Love a store-bought Danish cinnamon swirl? Then try these cinnamon sugar pinwheels!! Just 3 ingredients - puff pastry, cinnamon, and sugar, BUT, I'll show you how to take them next-level in minutes on a budget.Instructions included for both oven and air fryer.
First, preheat to 200°C (180°C fan) /400°F/gas mark 6.Next, in a small bowl, mix together the sugars and ground cinnamon.
60 g Light brown soft sugar, 40 g Granulated sugar, 1.5 tablespoon Ground cinnamon
Now unroll your puff pastry, leaving the baking paper on.Use a rolling pin to flatten it a little - just a few passes starting from the narrow edge will do.Then mix the vanilla into the melted butter and brush the pastry all over, keeping a little back for brushing before baking.
475 g Ready-Rolled Puff Pastry, 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract, 60 g Butter
Sprinkle your cinnamon sugar mixture all over the pastry - right up to the edges so every piece of dough is coated.
Starting from one of the longest edges, roll the pastry tightly and evenly into a log.
Slice your log into 1" slices.You should get about 12-20, depending on the size of your puff pastry sheet.Now use the pastry's parchment paper to line a baking tray.Place each slice on top and gently flatten with the palm of your hand so they're all uniform.
Next, brush each one with the butter and add a pinch of the walnuts.Place in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until they're golden and puffed.Then transfer to a cooling rack and mix and drizzle the icing sugar on top.
15 g Chopped walnuts, 60 g Icing sugar, 1 tablespoon Milk
