Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) or 160°C (fan). Line a baking tray with baking paper.
  2. Take the puff pastry from the freezer and let it sit for 15–20 minutes until it's pliable.
  3. Slice the puff pastry into 9 x 2.5 cm (1 inch) strips using a ruler and pizza cutter.
  4. Spread pizza sauce evenly across the strips, leaving the top edge free.
  5. Sprinkle diced ham, pizza cheese, and parsley over the sauce-covered strips.
  6. Roll each pastry strip upwards into a pinwheel shape and place on the prepared baking tray.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden and puffy.
  8. Let the pinwheels cool on the tray for a few minutes before serving.
