Easy Cheese Crab Pinwheels

15 minutes prep + 15 minutes cook
30 servings
Easy and delicious crab pinwheels made with cream cheese, real crab, avocado and puff pastry!

Ingredients 

  • 2 sheets puff pastry, thawed
  • 2 cups real cooked crab
  • 1 1/2 cups whipped cream cheese, softened at room temperature
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 green scallions, diced
  • 1 large avocado, diced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon EACH: black pepper, smoked paprika

Instructions

  • Allow the puff pastry sheets to thaw first. I usually take them out of the freezer the day before and place them into the refrigerator. You can also just let them sit at room temperature for 1 hour. Also, soften the cream cheese at room temperature for 1 hour. 
  • Preheat the oven to 350F. Place the cooked crab into a large mixing bowl, along with the softened cheese, Worcestershire, Dijon, salt and pepper.
  • Dice the green onion and avocado, then add to the mixing bowl and combine everything together.
  • Unfold the puff pastry sheets and spread the filling evenly onto both sheets, spreading it to the edges. Gently roll the sheets into a log, then use a sharp knife to cut the log into 1/2-inch sections.
  • Place the crab rolls face side up onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, until the edges of the crab pinwheels are golden.
  • Enjoy the appetizer while it's warm!
