Ingredients

Servings

For the Filling:

  • 1 pound ground pork
  • 1 apple peeled, cored, and grated (a tart variety like Granny Smith works well)
  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon sage dried
  • 1 teaspoon thyme dried
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

For the Pastry:

  • 1 pound puff pastry 1 package, thawed if frozen
  • 1 large egg beaten, for egg wash
  • 2 tablespoons black sesame seeds for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, grated apple, chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, dried sage, dried thyme, ground nutmeg, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined but do not overwork the meat mixture.
  2. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets into rectangles, approximately 10x12 inches. Cut each rectangle in half lengthwise to form long strips.
  4. Divide the sausage mixture into four equal portions. Shape each portion into a long log, about 1 inch in diameter, and place it along the center of each pastry strip. Brush one edge of each pastry strip with the beaten egg. Fold the other edge of the pastry over the sausage filling, pressing down to seal the edges. Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative seal.
  5. Cut each long roll into 3-4 smaller rolls. Place the sausage rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly score the tops of each roll with a sharp knife. Brush the tops of each roll with the remaining egg wash, then sprinkle generously with black sesame seeds.
  6. Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed, and the sausage filling is cooked through.
  7. Allow the sausage rolls to cool slightly before serving. These rolls are delicious served warm with a side of mustard or chutney for dipping.

Notes

  • Use a tart apple like Granny Smith for the perfect balance of sweetness and acidity in the filling.
  • Don’t overstuff the pastry, as it can tear when baking. Keep the sausage logs about 1 inch in diameter.
  • For extra crispiness, bake the sausage rolls on a wire rack placed over the baking sheet.
  • If you want to experiment, try adding a touch of maple syrup or honey to the filling for a hint of sweetness.
  • These are great to freeze unbaked—just bake straight from the freezer for a quick snack anytime!
