Sausage-Stuffed Puff Pastry Recipe

Instructions:

Cook the Sausage:

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into crumbles. Drain excess grease and let cool slightly.

Make the Filling:

In a bowl, combine the cooked sausage, cream cheese, and cheddar cheese. Mix until smooth and well blended.

Prepare the Pastry:

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

On a lightly floured surface, roll out each puff pastry sheet and cut into 6–8 squares (adjust size as desired).

Assemble the Pastries:

Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each square.

Fold into triangles or crescents, sealing edges by pressing with a fork or fingers.

Bake to Perfection:

Arrange pastries on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Brush with beaten egg for a golden finish.

Bake for 15–20 minutes until puffed and golden brown.

Serve & Enjoy:

Garnish with herbs if desired. Serve warm for the best flavor!

Tips:

For extra flavor, add ½ tsp garlic powder or diced jalapeños to the filling.

Freeze unbaked pastries and bake straight from frozen (add 3–5 extra minutes).
