• 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash) – This gives the rolls a beautiful golden finish.

How to Make Delicious Sausage Rolls for Your Next Halloween Party.

Ready to bring the joy of baking into your kitchen? Let’s get started!

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures a nice, crisp finish on your rolls.
2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle. Make sure it’s not too thick!
3. Cut the pastry into strips, approximately 3 inches wide. This will be just the right size for your sausage filling.
4. In a bowl, mix the sausage meat with thyme, salt, and pepper. Get your hands in there; it’s the best way to combine the flavors!
5. Place a line of the sausage mixture along the center of each pastry strip. Don’t be shy with the filling!
6. Fold the pastry over the sausage mixture and seal the edges by pressing with a fork. This keeps all that delicious filling tucked inside.
7. Cut each roll into your desired lengths and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This makes clean-up a breeze!
8. Brush the tops of the rolls with the beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired. This adds a wonderful shine and texture.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Your kitchen will smell heavenly!
10. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. I know it’s tempting, but a little cooling time helps the flavors meld beautifully.

Substitutions & Additions

If you’re feeling adventurous or need to cater to dietary preferences, try these swaps:

• Use vegetarian sausage meat for a meat-free option.
