Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 Flatout flatbread
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup raspberries
- 2 tbsp honey
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Ensure cream cheese is softened at room temperature for easy spreading. Place raspberries in a small bowl and gently mash them with a fork to create a slightly chunky fruit mixture.
- Lay the Flatout flatbread on a clean, flat surface. Using a spatula or butter knife, spread the softened cream cheese evenly across the entire surface of the flatbread, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Drizzle honey over the cream cheese layer, ensuring even distribution. This will add sweetness and help bind the ingredients.
- Carefully spread the mashed raspberries over the honey and cream cheese layer, creating a colorful and flavorful spread.
- Starting from one of the longer edges, carefully roll the flatbread tightly into a compact log, ensuring the filling remains inside and the roll is secure.
- Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into approximately 1-inch thick pieces, creating individual pinwheel-style rolls.
- Optional: Lightly dust the rolls with powdered sugar for added sweetness and a decorative finish.
- Serve immediately at room temperature, or chill for 15-20 minutes for a firmer texture. These rolls are best enjoyed fresh and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Tips
- Temperature Matters: Ensure your cream cheese is truly softened at room temperature to achieve a smooth, spreadable consistency.
- Mash Raspberries Gently: When preparing the raspberries, use a light touch. You want a slightly chunky texture that adds character to your rolls.
- Rolling Technique: Roll the flatbread tightly but carefully to prevent the filling from squeezing out. A consistent, compact roll ensures neat, beautiful pinwheels.
- Knife Sharp: Use a very sharp knife when slicing to get clean, even cuts without crushing the delicate roll.
- Serving Suggestion: For an extra touch of elegance, dust with powdered sugar just before serving. This not only adds sweetness but creates a visually appealing presentation.
- Make Ahead: While best served fresh, you can prepare these rolls a few hours in advance and store them in the refrigerator, covered.
