Pioneer Woman Sausage Rolls Recipe
The Pioneer Woman Sausage Rolls Recipe is a fantastic choice. It is flaky, savory, and very satisfying.
Ingredients
- 1 pound bulk pork sausage.
- 2 sheets frozen puff pastry.
- 1/2 cup dried breadcrumbs.
- 1 large egg beaten.
- 1 tablespoon cold whole milk.
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves.
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder.
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt.
Instructions
Thaw the Pastry
- Take the puff pastry out. Let it sit on the counter. It should be cold but flexible.
Mix the Meat
- Get a medium mixing bowl. Add sausage and breadcrumbs together. Add thyme, onion, salt, and pepper.
Blend it Well
- Use your hands for this part. Mix the spices into the meat. Make sure everything is spread evenly.
Roll the Dough
- Lay the pastry on the table. Cut each sheet into long strips. You should have four big rectangles.
Shape the Sausage
- Take a handful of meat mix. Roll it into a long log. Place it down the pastry center.
Fold the Sides
- Brush one edge with egg wash. Fold the pastry over the meat. Press the edges to seal them.
Cut the Rolls
- Use a very sharp knife now. Cut the long log into pieces. Each piece should be two inches.
Brush and Bake
- Place rolls on the baking sheet. Brush the tops with extra egg. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
Notes
- Keep the pastry cold. It rises better when it is chilly.
- Use high-quality sausage. This provides the best overall flavor.
- Seal the edges tightly. Use a fork to crimp them.
- Don't overfill the dough. It might burst in the oven.
- Use an egg wash. It makes the crust very shiny.
- Add some sesame seeds. Sprinkle them on top for crunch.
- Poke small steam holes. Use a knife on the top.
- Space them out well. They need room to puff up.
- Serve with spicy mustard. It balances the rich fatty meat.
