Instructions
a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Remove the puff pastry from your fridge and allow to come up to room temperature.
b) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Pick the rosemary leaves from their stalks and roughly chop (discard the stalks).
c) In a small saucepan, on medium heat, combine the butter, garlic and three quarters of the rosemary (use less if you prefer). Season with salt and pepper and stir until the butter is melted (1-2 mins)
d) Unfold the puff pastry onto a chopping board, keeping it on its baking paper. Spread the fig jam evenly over the pastry in a thin layer, leaving a 1cm border on all sides.
a) Using the baking paper to help you, carefully roll the pastry from the long side to enclose the filling and make a pastry log.
b) Trim (and discard) 1cm from each end of the pastry log to neaten, then carefully slice into 2cm thick rounds. You'll make approximately 12-16 rounds. TIP: A serrated knife makes slicing easier!
c) Place the rounds, cut-side up, onto a lined baking tray. Space them well apart so they can puff up.
d) Brush the pastry pinwheels with the garlic and rosemary butter, then, when the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf of your oven until golden, 20-25 mins.
a) While the pinwheels bake, remove the Camembert from its packaging, then pop it into a large square of foil. Scrunch the edges together around the sides, but leave the foil open at the top.
b) Place the Camembert onto a lined baking tray then drizzle with the honey ans sprinkle over the remaining rosemary. When the pinwheels have been in the oven for 5-10 mins, bake on the middle shelf until the cheese has melted, 15-20 mins.
c) When everything is baked, carefully slide the Camembert onto a serving platter. Arrange the pinwheels around the Camembert for dipping and scooping.
Enjoy!
