Ingredients
- 1 can of crescent rolls
- ½ cup fig preserves
- 2 oz honey-flavored goat cheese
- 1.5 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme (plus more for garnish, if desired)
Instructions
- Set your oven to 350 degrees F.
- Roll out the crescent dough on a piece of parchment paper. Don’t worry if you see some seams; just push them together gently. You want a nice, smooth surface for all those delicious toppings.
- Evenly spread the fig preserves over the dough, leaving about a ½ inch border around the edges. This will ensure that your filling doesn’t spill out when you roll it up.
- Sprinkle on the brown sugar, crumbled honey-flavored goat cheese, and fresh thyme leaves. The combination of flavors is going to be amazing!
- Carefully and tightly roll the dough into a log horizontally.
- Pop the log into the freezer for about 10 minutes. This will firm it up and make slicing much easier. Trust me; it’s worth the wait!
- Remove the dough from the freezer and, using a sharp knife, cut it into ½ inch thick slices. For clean cuts, wipe off your knife after each slice to avoid any sticking.
- Place the slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 13-15 minutes, or until they’re golden brown on the top and bottom. The aroma wafting through your kitchen will be irresistible!
- Once they’re done baking, plate the pinwheels and sprinkle with additional thyme if desired. Serve them warm, and watch as your guests devour them!
