Method

Sausage

  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, add all sausage ingredients,
    and mix on medium low until fully incorporated.
  2. Brown sausage in a large pan over medium high heat until cooked through. Strain
    excess fat and set aside.

Pizza Roll

  1. Lay puff pastry out on a lightly floured surface.
  2. Spoon half of the pizza sauce on bottom half of the pastry, leaving about ½” around the
    edge as room to pinch closed at the end.
  3. Layer half of all the toppings on top of the pizza sauce.
  4. Create slits in the top half of the pastry to act as vents.
  5. Pull pastry closed and seal the edges with a fork.
  6. Whisk one egg until no longer streaky to create an egg wash. Lightly brush top of pastry
    with the egg wash.
  7. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  8. Lightly salt top of pastry, and place on a parchment lined sheet pan and bake at 375 F for 20 minutes.
