Puff Pastry Sausage Rolls feature flaky, golden pastry wrapped around a savory, seasoned sausage filling. Perfect for parties or casual snacking, these bakery-style bites are crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside.

Ingredients

  • 2 puff pastry sheets, thawed
  • 1 pound ground pork sausage
  • 1/4 cup onion, finely minced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds or poppy seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, combine ground pork sausage, minced onion, garlic, parsley, dried thyme, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly incorporated.
  3. Roll out puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface and cut each sheet into long rectangles.
  4. Shape sausage mixture into logs and place along the center of each pastry strip.
  5. Fold pastry over the filling and seal the edges by pressing gently with fingers or a fork.
  6. Place rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Brush tops with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds if desired.
  8. Cut into smaller portions.
  9. Bake for 20–25 minutes, until pastry is puffed and golden brown and sausage reaches 160°F (71°C).
  10. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Chicken or turkey sausage can be substituted for a lighter option.
  • Add grated apple or shredded cheese for extra flavor and moisture.
  • Sauté added vegetables first to prevent excess moisture.
  • Store leftovers refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheat in a 350°F oven.
  • Unbaked rolls can be frozen for up to 2 months and baked from frozen with additional time.
