Description
Crab Rangoon Pinwheels are a delicious appetizer that combines the flavors of creamy crab filling with a crispy exterior.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup imitation crab meat, shredded
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (for coating)
- Cooking spray or oil for baking
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded crab meat, green onions, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and smooth.
- Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread an even layer of the crab mixture over the tortilla, leaving about half an inch at the edges.
- Starting from one edge, carefully roll the tortilla tightly to form a log. Make sure the filling stays inside as you roll.
- Once rolled, slice the tortilla log into 1-inch thick pinwheels. This should yield about 10-12 pinwheels per tortilla.
- Place the breadcrumbs in a shallow dish. Dip each pinwheel into the breadcrumbs, ensuring they are well coated.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the coated pinwheels onto the sheet, leaving space between each one.
- Lightly spray the tops of the pinwheels with cooking spray or drizzle with a little oil for a crunchier texture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Serve warm for best taste.
- These pinwheels can be made ahead and frozen before baking.
