Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Oven
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) . Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Step 2: Make the Filling
- In a large bowl, combine the ground sausage, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, parsley, sage, salt, pepper, and beaten egg. Mix with your hands or a fork until evenly blended, but do not overmix.
Step 3: Prepare the Puff Pastry
- Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the puff pastry to smooth the creases.
- Cut the pastry sheet in half lengthwise so you have two long strips . ezstandalone.cmd.push(function () { ezstandalone.showAds(118); });
Step 4: Assemble the Sausage Rolls
- Divide the sausage filling into two equal portions.
- Shape each portion into a log and place it down the center of each pastry strip. ezstandalone.cmd.push(function () { ezstandalone.showAds(119); });
- Fold one side of the pastry over the filling and roll to seal, seam side down.
- Use a sharp knife to cut into desired lengths — mini (2 inches) or standard (4 inches) .
- Place rolls on the prepared tray, spaced slightly apart.
Step 5: Score and Glaze
- Use a sharp knife to lightly score the tops of each roll (diagonal slashes help them vent and look great).
- Brush each roll with egg wash for a beautiful golden finish. ezstandalone.cmd.push(function () { ezstandalone.showAds(122); });
Step 6: Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes , or until the pastry is puffed, golden, and the filling is cooked through. If making smaller rolls, check at 20 minutes.
Step 7: Cool and Serve
- Let the sausage rolls cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature with your favorite dips like ketchup , mustard , or sweet chili sauce .
