Everything Bagel Sausage Rolls
These Everything Bagel Sausage Rolls are the perfect snack or appetizer for the holidays or gatherings with family and friends. A combo of a classic English sausage roll and caramelized onions, fennel, cheesiness, and topped with everything bagel seasoning.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 small yellow onion
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 lb ground pork
- 2 tsp fennel seeds crushed with a mortar and pestle or spice grinder
- 1¼ tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 3 - 4 tbsp cream cheese
- ½ cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 2 - 3 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 sheet puffed pastry thawed, each sheet cut in half
- 1 egg + 1 tsp water beaten
- everything bagel seasoning
Honey Dijon Dipping Sauce (optional)
- ½ cup mayo
- 2 - 3 tbsp Dijon
- 2 tbsp honey
- salt and pepper to taste
Recipe Instructions
- Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add butter and onion. Stir occasionally and caramelize onions. (To speed up the process, after 5 - 10 minutes, add a splash of water and stir. Repeat after another 5 minutes if needed. Should take about 20 minutes to caramelize).
- Once onions look about done, add in the garlic and stir. Cook until fragrant, for about 2 minutes, and then remove from heat. Transfer to a large mixing bowl to cool.
- Once onion mixture has cooled, add in your pork, crushed fennel, salt, pepper, cream cheese, and cheddar cheese. Use your hand to evenly incorporate all of the ingredients.
- Lay out a rectangle of pastry, long edge closest to you. Brush Dijon mustard down the long edge. Using your hands, take a handful of the meat mixture and form into an even roughly 1 inch high log on top of the mustard strip.
- Roll the sausage log so the edge meets the puff pastry and meat log is fully sealed with pastry. Slightly press down and use a small knife to cut along the edge and remove the remaining pastry. Softly roll the log to ensure it is sealed. Repeat with the remaining pastry until all of the meat is used.
- If you have the time and patience, refrigerate for 1 hour. (This will make it easier to cut).
When Ready to Bake
- When ready to bake, preheat oven to 375℉. Cut sausage rolls into small equal pieces, about 1 - 2 inches wide. Place on a parchment paper-lined baking tray.
- Brush egg wash over the tops and sides of the rolls. Generously sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning. Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Serve warm with desired dipping sauce.
For the Honey Dijon Dipping Sauce (optional)
- In a small bowl, mix together all of the ingredients. Taste and adjust to your liking.
