FAQ:

Can I make these pinwheels ahead of time?
Yes! You can prepare the rolls up to a day in advance and slice them just before serving.

Can I use fresh cranberries instead of dried?
Dried cranberries are recommended for their sweetness and chewiness. If you prefer fresh cranberries, finely chop and mix them with a bit of sugar to balance the tartness.

What’s the best way to keep the pinwheels from unrolling?
Chilling the rolls for at least an hour before slicing helps them hold their shape. You can also secure them with toothpicks if serving immediately.

Can I use a different cheese instead of feta?
Absolutely! Goat cheese or shredded cheddar are great alternatives that pair well with cranberries.
