These delicious apple pinwheels are a great no-bake alternative to creating a full-fledged baked fall dessert. Instead these rolls replicate the flavors of a cheesecake and apple pie with fresh ingredients that can be served up instantly.
These apple pie cheesecake pinwheels get their name from the way the ingredients are rolled together like a wrap and then sliced to create mini rounds. The pinwheels are made with multi-grain wraps that are topped with a crunchy nut-free butter, light cream cheese, sliced apples and cinnamon. Everything is then rolled inside the bread and sliced so that each pinwheel showcases the healthy ingredients inside. This is a simple, low calorie alternative to dessert that still offers the same great festive flavors.
