Sausage-Stuffed Puff Pastry: A Flaky, Savory Delight 🥐✨

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven – Set to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Filling – In a pan over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned. Drain excess grease and mix in cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Let cool slightly.
3. Roll Out the Puff Pastry – Lightly flour your surface and roll out the pastry sheet. Cut into squares or rectangles, depending on your desired size.
4. Fill & Seal – Spoon sausage filling onto each piece of pastry. Fold over and press the edges with a fork to seal.
5. Egg Wash – Whisk the egg with milk or water and brush over the pastries for a golden finish.
6. Bake – Place on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and flaky.
7. Garnish & Serve – Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm!

Tips for the Best Puff Pastry Bites:

• Don’t Overfill! Too much filling can cause them to burst open while baking.
• Keep Pastry Cold – If the dough gets too soft, chill it for a few minutes before baking.
• Try Different Fillings – Add sautéed onions, mushrooms, or spinach for variety.
