Equipment

  • Bowl
  • Knife
  • Grater
  • Baking Sheet

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 pound ground Italian sausage
  • ½ a medium onion diced
  • 1 small apple peeled, cored, grated, & juice squeezed out
  • ½ cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1 tablespoon dried rubbed sage
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1 box Puff Pastry 2 sheets

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 415°. In a medium bowl, combine the sausage, bread crumbs, sage, diced onion, and grated apple. Add a good pinch of salt and pepper. Mix together thoroughly with your hands.
  • Roll out one sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured countertop. Cut the puff pastry sheet in half longways.
  • Take ¼ of the sausage mixture and shape into a long tube. Lay the first tube of sausage on one rectangle of dough. Squeeze and shape to extend the sausage to be the same length as the dough. Repeat the process with another ¼ of the sausage and dough. Repeat this process with the second sheet of puff pastry from the box.
  • Brush some of the beaten egg along one edge of each piece of pastry. Wrap the dough over the sausage to create a long roll. Press the dough together at the seam then roll the entire roll over so that the seam is on the bottom. Repeat with the remaining rolls.
  • Using a sharp knife or bench scrapper, cut the first roll in half. Cut each half in half again. Then cut each of those in half. This should leave you with 8 rolls. Repeat with the remaining long roll. Spread the small cut rolls out a bit on the baking sheet.
  • Brush beaten egg over each sausage roll. Cut a diagonal slash (not all the way through the pastry) on the top of each sausage roll.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes or until a thermometer registers 160° when inserted into the center of the sausage. Baking time will vary with each oven so make sure to bake until the sausage is cooked all the way through. If the pastry begins to brown too much, cover lightly with foil.
  • Let cool at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.
