Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 fresh jalapeños, finely diced and seeds removed
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough or 1 sheet puff pastry
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium bowl, mix cream cheese, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, jalapeños, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- Unroll crescent roll dough or puff pastry onto a flat surface and press seams together if needed.
- Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the dough.
- Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into 1-inch thick pinwheels.
- Arrange pinwheels in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each one.
- Air fry for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Add extra cheese for a richer filling.
- Adjust the spice level by using more or fewer jalapeños or blending with milder peppers.
- Smoked paprika or chili powder can add extra flavor to the filling.
- Use puff pastry for flakier results, or crescent dough for a softer texture.
