Cheese and Onion Sausage Rolls are a savory treat with juicy sausage, melted cheddar, and caramelized onions wrapped in buttery puff pastry—perfect for snacks or parties!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed
- 1 lb sausage meat
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 egg, beaten
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. - Prepare the Filling:
In a mixing bowl, combine the sausage meat, shredded cheddar cheese, and finely chopped onion. Season with salt and pepper to taste. - Assemble the Rolls:
Unroll the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut the pastry into two equal rectangles.
Divide the sausage mixture in half and form each half into a long log, placing each log in the center of a pastry rectangle. - Seal and Cut:
Brush the edges of the puff pastry rectangles with the beaten egg.
Fold the pastry over the sausage logs, pressing the edges together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges if desired.
Cut each log into 4 equal pieces to make 8 rolls total and place them on the prepared baking sheet. - Bake:
Brush the tops of the rolls with the remaining beaten egg.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the sausage is cooked through. - Serve:
Allow to cool slightly before serving
Notes
- For a shiny finish, brush the rolls with an extra layer of beaten egg before baking.
