Servings: 12 rolls
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry thawed
- 16 oz ground pork
- ½ cup dry breadcrumbs 2.65 ounces
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon dried sage
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 dash ground nutmeg
- 1 dash ground mace
- 3 oz water
- 1 egg for egg wash
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400° F.
- Combine the ground pork, breadcrumbs, water, and seasonings in a food processor and pulse together until well combined.
- Cook a small amount of the sausage to check your seasons, adjust as necessary. Refrigerate after mixing.
- On a floured surface roll out the sheet of puff pastry sheet. Work into a 10” x 14” or 15” rectangle. Place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and then cut in half lengthwise.
- Place a 1” - 1.5” roll of half of the sausage on each strip of pastry.
- Fold the pastry over the sausage and use a fork to seal the edges together.
- Cut each roll into 2”-3” sections, or your preferred size. Cut 2 to 3 diagonal slits in each piece to release the steam.
- Brush the pastry with egg wash.
- Bake at 400° F for 25 to 30 minutes. The sausage rolls are done when the pastry is deep golden brown and the sausage has reached an internal temperature of 165?. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Bake at 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes, until the pastry is deep golden brown
- If your sausage is on the leaner side, work in 1-2 tablespoons of butter to keep the filling juicy
- Keep the pastry and sausage cold before assembling for the flakiest results
- Press and seal the edges well to prevent the filling from leaking out during baking
- Baking from frozen? Increase the oven to 425 degrees and add 5-6 extra minutes
- Reheat leftovers at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes rather than microwaving, to keep the pastry crisp
