Common mistakes OR What to skip
Don’t try to use raw pastry straight from the freezer; let it thaw fully or it will crack. Avoid overfilling with ham or cheese—too much and the pinwheels won’t hold their shape. Skipping the egg wash makes them look dull and less appetizing. Everything bagel seasoning adds flavor and crunch, so don’t leave it out unless you have a dietary reason.
