To use sausage rolls as a delicious after school snack or a quick lunch!

Complete the full recipe and let the sausage rolls cool to room temperature. Place them in a large freezer bag and freeze.

Oven

Remove the sausage rolls from the freezer and place on a sprayed baking sheet. Cover them with aluminum foil and let rest on the counter while you preheat the oven to 350ºF. Bake for 10 minutes keeping them covered in the aluminum foil.

Microwave

Remove sausage rolls from the freezer and wrap them all in a very wet paper towel. For 1 roll, microwave for 30 seconds. Add another 5 second for each additional roll.

Air Fryer

Remove the sausage rolls from the freezer and wrap as many as you’d like in aluminum foil. Place them in the air fryer at 350ºF for 7 minutes.

    I’m confused here. A 3 feet by 7 inch strip. 3 feet long? OUt of 8 rolls? I don’t have that much room on my counter to roll out something that long.

      Thank you for your comment! Just roll out as much dough as you can and then pinch it together as you go. Hope that makes sense! If you have any questions, please feel free to call one of our baking experts at 1-800-876-7333. Happy Baking!

    Would you please clarify step 2? You lost me in at “take the side that was brushed with butter and wrap that dough around the sausage mixture. That will tightly pack the sausage into the dough. Brush the other side of the dough with butter, just on the inner edge next to the dough that is wrapped around the sausage. Wrap that dough around the dough that is already encasing the sausage.’ Are you actually splitting it into three sections? one with the sausage-one to wrap around the sausage-and the rest to wrap around what was already rolled up?

    Hi, my question is this: is the sausage raw that gets rolled up in the bread dough? Would the receipe work with pre-cooked sausage crumbles that are available?
    Thanks,
    Kris

      Thanks for your question! I don’t see why you couldn’t use the precooked sausage. You probably wouldn’t need to bake them as long though. Maybe just until the Roll is baked. I would check them between 15-20 minutes. You can also speak to one of our Baking Experts on our Customer Satisfaction line at 1-800-876-7333. They are always willing to help with any questions you might have.

      That may be true when making a traditional roll, but these are our version, using our product.

    I just made these sausage rolls for the second time. The first time I followed the instructions as written. This second time I decided to roll out all the balls of dough first and then add the sausage mixture. It wa
    S so much easier the second time and a whole lot less messy. My husband loves these rolls!

      You can surely put them in the refrigerator during that time. But it will take longer to rise.

    Why doesn’t the bottom of my dough cook?

      You may want to cook a little longer. And you may want to lower the temperature 025 degrees too.

    My question is, can the rolls be made and frozen before baking and be able to take out whatever I need and bake?

    reply

      The rolls need to raise and then baked and then frozen. After they are thawed you could certainly use them at taht point.

    The name indicates air fryer… but directions say bake. I’m confused!!

      The recipe is written for the oven. There are directions for an air fryer or microwave underneath that recipe, if you scroll down.
