Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground sausage Italian or breakfast sausage
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 package 1 pound refrigerated puff pastry (2 sheets)
  • 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  2. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until soft and caramelized, about 10-12 minutes.
  3. Stir in the garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the ground sausage, sautéed onion mixture, and shredded mozzarella cheese. Mix until well combined.
  5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one sheet of puff pastry to smooth out creases. Cut the pastry into rectangles, approximately 4 inches by 6 inches.
  6. Place a generous tablespoon of the sausage mixture along one edge of each rectangle. Roll the pastry over the filling, sealing the edges with a fork. Repeat with the second sheet of pastry.
  7. Place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
  9. Let the sausage rolls cool for a few minutes before serving. They can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
