Ingredients
- Beef mini sausages
- Puff pastry
- Cheese (optional, e.g., cheddar or American)
- Mustard (for dipping)
- Ketchup (for dipping)
- Barbecue sauce (for dipping, optional)
- Honey mustard (for dipping, optional)
- Egg (for egg wash, optional)
- Milk (for egg wash, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Unroll your puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. If you’re using crescent roll dough, unroll it and separate it into triangles.
- Cut the puff pastry into rectangles, about 3×2 inches each. If using crescent roll dough, keep the triangles as is.
- Place a mini sausage at one end of each pastry rectangle. If you’re adding cheese, place a small slice on top of the sausage first.
- Roll the pastry around the sausage until it’s completely covered.
- Gently press the edges of the pastry to seal them.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the wrapped sausages seam-side down on the sheet, leaving some space between each one.
- Brush the tops of the pastry with a beaten egg for a beautiful golden finish. If you prefer, a light coating of milk will also work.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces!
