3. Assemble the rolls:
- Roll out each sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut into 3 long strips.
- Spoon sausage mixture down the center of each strip and fold the pastry over the filling, sealing the edge with a bit of water. Press gently to seal and flip seam-side down.
4. Cut and prep:
- Slice into 2-inch pieces and place on the baking sheet.
- Beat the egg and brush over the tops of the rolls for a golden finish.
- Sprinkle with poppy or sesame seeds if using.
5. Bake:
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the sausage is fully cooked and the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
6. Serve and watch them disappear:
- Let cool slightly before serving. These are best enjoyed warm but are delicious at room temperature too.
🥳 Perfect For:
- Birthday parties

👩🍳 Pro Tips

✨ Final Thoughts
Some recipes don’t need fancy introductions—they speak for themselves the moment you take a bite. Nana’s sausage rolls are exactly that kind of dish. They’re the sort of appetizer that vanishes before dinner’s even served and gets asked about for weeks after the party.
So the next time you’re wondering what to bring to a gathering, make these. Just be ready to share the recipe—and maybe bring an extra tray!
