Vegan Sausage Rolls
Are you ready for a super simple, but super tasty vegan sausage roll recipe?
These seem to make an appearance every Christmas in my household, and I’m always left thinking, “Why don’t I make these more often?!” What I love about this recipe is the relatively quick prep, and how these vegan sausage rolls are packed with plenty of plant-based protein. They’re also really fun to make!
Ingredients:
- 2 brown onions diced small
- 4 cloves of garlic minced (honestly, use as much as you like)
- 2 medium carrots grated
- ~200g mushrooms chopped
- 2 cans red kidney beans mashed
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 bunch thyme chopped
- 1 bunch rosemary chopped
- 200g textured vegetable protein (prepped with hot water & vegan beef stock)
- Black pepper
- 4-5 sheets of puff pastry
- Nuttelex (melted)
Method:
- Saute onions in a frypan until soft, then add garlic and mushrooms and cook until wilted.
- Place the onions, garlic and mushrooms in a large mixing bowl, then add all other ingredients. Mix until combined.
- Remove puff pastry sheets from the freezer and lay out to thaw.
- Cut all thawed puff pastry sheets into two equal halves.
- Place a line of mixture down the entire length of the puff pastry – approx 4cm wide and 2cm high.
- Fold the pastry over the mixture, so the ends meet and can be gently joined together.
- Repeat this steps 5 & 6 for all puff pastry sections.
- Place the entire length of sausage roll onto a baking tray. Make sure the side with the pastry join is down!
- Using a knife, place three small cuts into the top layer of pastry.
- Bake in a pre-heated oven at 180-degrees celsius until golden & flaky (approx 25-30mins).
- Enjoy with some classic tomato sauce!
