SAUSAGE & STUFFING CRISS-CROSS PASTRY


Dressing is one of my favorites!  

Easy and delicious! Putting this dressing or your own dressing recipe in puff pastry is such a great idea as a side dish or appetizer.

I have been seeing many recipes made into individual servings by placing the pastry in muffin tins, filled with whatever filling you wish.  This recipe would work with that technique.



INGREDIENTS

    • 1/2 of a 17.3-ounce package Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Sheets (1 sheet), thawed
    • 2 eggs
    • 1 tbsp. water
    • 1/2 lb. bulk pork sausage
    • 1 cup Pepperidge Farm® Herb Seasoned Stuffing
    • 1 small onion, chopped (about 1/4 cup)
    • 1 cup chopped mushrooms (about 3 ounces)



DIRECTIONS

Heat the oven to 375°F. 


Beat water and 1 egg in a small bowl with a fork or whisk.

In a large bowl, mix the sausage, stuffing, remaining egg, onion and mushrooms.

Unfold the pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface and cut slits 1-inch apart from the outer edge to the fold mark on each side of the pastry sheet. 

Spoon the dressing mixture down the center of the pastry. 

Starting at one end, fold the pastry strips over the dressing mixture, alternating sides, to cover the dressing mixture. 

Place the pastry onto a baking sheet and brush with the egg mixture.

Bake for 35 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the sausage is cooked through. Let the pastry cool on the baking sheet on a wire rack for 10 minutes.


Tip: Serves 8 as an appetizer.
