These little appetizers are quick and very easy. What goes better together than pineapple and ham? They can be made 'seasonal' by using different flavored tortilla with different coloring. The logs can be made ahead of time and refrigerated overnight. Cut when ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Add a sprinkle of brown sugar or cinnamon to the pineapple mixture for a more caramelized flavor.
  • If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use a wine bottle or even a glass to flatten the dough.
  • To make the pinwheels ahead of time, assemble them and wrap them tightly in plastic wrap. Store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze them for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before baking.
  • Serve the pinwheels warm or at room temperature. They can be enjoyed on their own, or with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
