Ingredients:
1 lb (450g) ground sausage (use pork, turkey, or chicken sausage)
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed (about 9-10 inches square)
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: 1/4 cup breadcrumbs for added texture
Optional: 1 tsp mustard or paprika for extra flavor
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Sausage Mixture:
In a bowl, combine the sausage with salt, pepper, and any optional seasonings like mustard or paprika for extra flavor. Mix well.
2. Prepare the Puff Pastry:
Lay out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface and cut it into two equal strips.
3. Form the Rolls:
Divide the sausage mixture in half. Shape each half into a long log and place it along the edge of each puff pastry strip.
Roll the pastry over the sausage, sealing the edges by pressing down firmly. Use a bit of water along the edge if needed.
4. Cut and Egg Wash:
Cut each roll into bite-sized pieces, about 2-3 inches long.
Place the rolls seam side down and brush each with the beaten egg.
5. Air Fry:
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for a few minutes.
Place the sausage rolls in the air fryer basket, leaving space between each roll.
Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the sausage is cooked through.
6. Serve:
Let the rolls cool slightly before serving. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, like mustard or ketchup.
Enjoy your crispy and flavorful air fryer
