Print Recipe

These crispy everything bagel pinwheels combine a crunchy exterior with a creamy, tangy cream cheese filling, seasoned with everything bagel seasoning for a perfect snack or appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (8 oz / 226 g) crescent roll dough
  • 4 oz (115 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: shredded sharp cheddar or smoked gouda cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, chopped fresh chives, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  3. Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface and press the perforations together to form one solid rectangle.
  4. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the dough, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
  5. Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning evenly over the cream cheese layer and press lightly to help it stick.
  6. Roll the dough tightly from the long edge and pinch the seam to seal.
  7. Slice the roll into 1-inch pinwheels using a sharp knife or pizza cutter. Refrigerate for 10 minutes if dough is too soft.
  8. Place pinwheels cut side up on the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 1 inch apart.
  9. Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
  10. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Seal dough seams well to prevent filling leakage. Use softened but cold cream cheese for easy spreading. Watch oven closely near end of baking to avoid burning. For extra crispiness, brush tops lightly with melted butter before baking. Pinwheels can be assembled ahead and refrigerated before baking; add 1-2 minutes to baking time. Freeze unbaked pinwheels on a tray before transferring to freezer bag; bake from frozen adding a few extra minutes.
