Easy Keto Sausage Rolls
Enjoy the scrumptious taste of these easy keto sausage rolls without the guilt of carbs with this simple and flavourful recipe. With just a handful of ingredients, you can recreate the bakery-favorite treat in the comfort of your home.
Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 110g grated mozzarella cheese
- 170g almond meal
- 3 tbsp softened butter
- 6 gluten free pork sausages
Method:
1. Preparing the Dough:
- Preheat the oven to 220°C and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Separate the white and yolk of one egg, keeping the yolk aside for later use.
- In a stand mixer bowl, combine the egg white, one whole egg, mozzarella cheese, almond meal, and soft butter.
- Mix on low for 20 seconds or until a rough dough forms.
2. Chilling the Dough:
- Roll the dough into a ball using your hands.
- Wrap the dough ball in baking paper and chill in the fridge for 1 hour.
3. Rolling out the Pastry:
- Once chilled, cut the dough in two.
- Roll each portion between two sheets of baking paper to form large rectangles about 3mm thick.
4. Preparing the Sausage Filling:
- Remove the top layer of baking paper from the pastry.
- Cut the end off three sausages and squeeze the meat out in a single straight line along the long edge of one pastry rectangle, leaving a 1 cm gap at the pastry edge.
5. Rolling and Shaping:
- Use the baking paper to help roll the pastry gently around the sausage meat until it resembles a long sausage ‘log’. Handle the delicate dough with care.
- Brush egg yolk along the edges of the pastry to help the dough stick.
- Repeat the process with the second rectangle of pastry and the remaining sausages.
6. Chilling and Cutting:
- Place the sausage ‘logs’ on their baking paper in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- After chilling, cut each sausage ‘log’ into 4 sausage rolls, totaling 8 rolls.
- Gently place them on the prepared baking tray. Reshape the dough around the sausage meat using your hands if needed.
7. Baking to Perfection:
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until the pastry achieves a golden brown hue, and the sausage meat is thoroughly cooked through.
