Sausage Rolls are a must-have for potlucks, Game Day parties, and holiday gatherings.
Made with pizza dough and fresh sausages, they’re like grown-up pigs in a blanket!
The kids loved them and when my parents joined us for dinner, they did, too.

You have to have one recipe that is practically as easy as ordering pizza, after all.
That will really cut your work in half.
To make the sausage rolls, roll out the dough and cut it into strips.

The sausage links go into the dough fully cooked.
Call them sausage rolls or pigs in a blanket, either way they’re a fun weeknight meal.
They’re also absolutely perfect for a potluck party orGame Day buffet.

You’ll need some pickles to serve alongside and yellow or brown ballpark-style mustard for dipping.
With a paring knife, prick the sausages all over.
Place them on a broiler pan or in an oven-safe skillet and rub all over with oil.

Rub a little olive oil on the pan beneath each sausage, too.
Let the sausages cool on a plate lined with paper towels.
Remove the dough from the fridge and transfer it to a lightly floured surface.

Cut 16 strips horizontally.
(Brush any extra strips with butter and garlic, and fold into garlic knots!
Bake them alongside the sausage rolls until puffed and golden.)

Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Tuck the last piece under the roll and set it on the baking sheet.
Continue until all the sausages are rolled.

In a bowl, whisk the egg, water, and salt.
Brush the egg over the tops and sides of all the rolls.
Bake for 25 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through.

When done, the rolls should be a deep golden-brown on the top and sides.
Remove from the oven to cool 5 minutes.
Serve with mustard and pickles.
