Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 sheets puff pastry dough thawed in the refrigerator overnight
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 pound pork sausage
  • 1 large egg whisked
  • 1 cup ketchup for serving

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 °F.
  • Roll the pastry dough out on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet in half lengthwise. Use a basting brush or the back of a spoon to spread the mustard evenly along one length of the dough.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut along the top of each sausage to split open the casing and remove the meat. Discard casings.
  • Arrange the meat over the mustard on each sheet. Cut or stretch potions of sausage to fill the entire length of the dough from edge to edge.
  • Roll the dough over and brush the egg on the underside of the edge. Press in place and score the entire length with the back of a fork to seal.
  • Arrange the seam side down and brush the remaining egg over the tops of each roll. Slice each of the four sections into 6 mini rolls. Use a knife to make a small incision on the top of each roll to let the steam escape.
  • Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes until golden brown.

Notes

  • If using ready-made puff pastry, make sure to thaw it out according to the manufacturer's instructions before use.
  • To avoid the sausage mixture from sticking to your hands while shaping the filling, dampen it with a bit of water before shaping. Also, make baking less messy by lining the pan with greased foil or parchment paper.
  • Be careful not to overfill the rolls; this can cause the pastry to burst open while baking.
Serve: Enjoy as is and serve with a dipping sauce of your choice. For a heartier meal, pair with baked beans, coleslaw, potato salad, or grilled vegetables and french fries or onion rings for the kids. For holiday gatherings, serve sausage rolls with chutney or cranberry sauce.
Store: Place baked sausage rolls in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Transfer either baked or unbaked rolls into a freezer-safe container layered in parchment paper then freeze for up to 1 month. Reheat baked sausage rolls in the oven at 400 F oven for about 10 to 15 minutes. Defrost unbaked rolls overnight in the fridge, apply an egg wash, then bake according to the recipe.
