Sausage, White Cheddar and Green Onion Pinwheels

Back to recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 frozen puff pastry sheet, thawed
  • 1-pound mild pork or breakfast sausage
  • 1/3 cup green onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup white cheddar cheese
  • 1 egg, beaten

Directions

  1. Unroll the thawed puff pastry on a floured surface.
  2. Spread sausage on pastry, leaving a 1/4-inch border. 
  3. Sprinkle with the green onion and cheese. 
  4. Take one end of the pastry and start rolling the pastry, brushing the end border with an egg wash. Wrap with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 2 hours. This helps when it’s time to slice the roll. When you're ready to bake, preheat the oven to 400 F.
  5. Let the roll thaw just enough to slice with a knife. Slice 1/2-inch pinwheels. 
  6. Put the pinwheels onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake 40-45 minutes until the sausage is fully cooked. 
  7. Remove from oven and serve.

*The roll can stay in the freezer up to 1 month before using.
