You Only Need 6 Ingredients To Make Pumpkin Cheesecake Pinwheels

Pumpkin cheesecake pinwheels satisfy your sweet tooth without the need to break out a mixing bowl, and they come together with just a few simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand. This recipe comes from TikTok creator @iricksnacks, and they are even simpler than his easy pumpkin cottage cheese cheesecakes. All you need are flour tortillas, cream cheese, canned pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, butter, and the sweetener of your choice.

Simply spread the tortilla with cream cheese and puree and sprinkle in the pumpkin pie spice and sweetener. Any kind of sugar or powdered sweetener will work here, but if you prefer something like honey or maple syrup, just stir it into the pumpkin first so it does not drip out. Alternatively, skip this step all together, and use ready-made pumpkin pie filling that's already sweetened.

Then, just roll the tortillas up and brush them in butter as the creator does, or use an egg wash instead; the goal is for the outsides to get nice and golden brown. While an air fryer is featured in the video, you can totally make these in an oven or toaster oven instead. You just want them to get nice and crispy. Minutes later, you'll have a treat that's satisfying, sweet, tangy, and so easy to put together.

These sweet treats are begging for some crunchy, chewy, or melty additions. So many different ingredients will work well here — just make sure they are chopped small enough so that you can still roll the tortillas up tightly. Try toasted walnuts, candied pecans, or graham cracker crumbles for crunch. Miniature dark chocolate or white chocolate chips, a swipe of peanut butter, or a spoonful of three-ingredient marshmallow fluff lend a delectable creaminess, and some dried cranberries or toasted shredded coconut bring a pleasant chew. Eat your pinwheels straight out of the oven, or add them to a TikTok caramel apple board for a super cute touch.

However you decide to make them, you can also freeze these little pumpkin cheesecake pinwheels. Skipping the step of coating them with butter or egg, freeze the cut rounds on a parchment-lined sheet tray before transferring them to an airtight bag or container. Then, whenever the craving strikes, brush that butter or egg wash on and pop them in the air fryer — you will just have to increase the cooking time slightly, since they will be heating up from frozen. Pumpkin desserts and sweet snacks just got so much easier!
