Try all of the following variations…but if you must choose only one, I would definitely recommend the Cinnamon Roll Pinwheels (A quick and fantastic alternative to real cinnamon rolls) Eat them while they’re hot!!
Ingredients:
Six 8-inch flour tortillas @ room temp.
3 T meatless spaghetti sauce
1 cup mozzarella cheese, divided
1 small package sliced pepperoni
4 thin slices of deli ham
¼ c. sugar
1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Ingredients for Icing:
1 cup confectioner’s sugar
1 T margarine, room temp
enough milk for desired consistency (start with a couple teaspoons and add more as you necessary)
2 drops almond extract
Lay out flour tortillas.
Pizza Pinwheels:
Over two tortillas, spread a light layer of meatless spaghetti sauce.
Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Place pepperoni slices side by side on top of cheese to cover tortilla. Roll prepared tortillas in jelly roll fashion, and with a sharp (serrated) knife slice the tortilla cross ways into ½-1 inch slices to form pinwheels. Place a toothpick through each pinwheel to hold it together and transfer to prepared cookie sheet, ½ inch apart.
Classic Hot Ham and Cheese Pinwheels:
Sprinkle two other tortillas with mozzarella (or cheddar) cheese. Place deli ham slices on top of cheese to cover the whole tortilla. Roll in jelly roll fashion and slice the rolled tortilla cross ways into ½-1 inch slices with a sharp or serrated knife. Place toothpick in each pinwheel to hold it together and place on prepared cookie sheet, ½ inch apart.
Cinnamon Roll Pinwheels****favorite****
Cover last two tortillas with a light layer of margarine (room temp) Sprinkle tortillas with cinnamon sugar. Cut tortilla into strips about 1 inch wide. Place a few chocolate chips on each strip and roll it up to look like a pinwheel. Place a toothpick through the pinwheels to hold them together and put them on a prepared cookie sheet side by side.
Spray pinwheels with non-stick cooking spray and bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes or until tortillas are crisp.
After cooked, Mix icing ingredients together (see above) and dribble it over the cinnamon roll pinwheels. Serve all pinwheels warm!
