Prepare the Puff Pastry: Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to smooth out any creases. Make sure it’s thawed but still cold for easier handling.

Layer with Ham: Arrange slices of ham evenly across the entire surface of the puff pastry sheet, leaving a small border around the edges.

Add the Zucchini: Spread the shredded zucchini evenly over the ham. Be sure to squeeze out excess moisture from the zucchini using a paper towel, as too much water can make the pastry soggy.

Sprinkle with Cheese: Top the zucchini with shredded cheese. You can use mozzarella, cheddar, or a combination of both for a rich, cheesy flavor.

Season: Lightly sprinkle salt and pepper over the entire surface to season the filling.

Roll the Pastry: Starting from one side, carefully roll the puff pastry into a tight log, similar to rolling a Swiss roll. Use gentle but firm pressure to keep the filling in place while rolling.

Slice into Pinwheels: Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled pastry into 1-inch thick rounds. You should end up with 8-10 pinwheels, depending on the size of your pastry sheet.

Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F) for about 3-5 minutes.

Arrange in Air Fryer: Place the pinwheels in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each one. You may need to cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding.

Egg Wash: Brush the tops of each pinwheel with a little beaten egg. This will help the pastry turn a beautiful golden color as it cooks.

Cook: Air fry the pinwheels at 180°C (350°F) for 8-10 minutes. Check halfway through and rotate them for even browning. Cook until golden brown and crispy on the outside.

Cool and Serve: Let the pinwheels cool for a few minutes on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy while still warm!
