Sausage Croissants Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Unroll the pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut in half horizontally. Slice each half into 5 equal strips. Cut each rectangle in half diagonally to make 2 long triangles.
• Put a sausage on the fattest end of the pastry triangle and roll up. Repeat with the remaining sausages, then pop them all onto a greased baking tray. You can cover and chill for up to 2 days now.
• Brush the rolls with the beaten egg and cook for 25 mins until puffed up and golden. If you want to cook them ahead, but still serve them warm, simply pop back in a hot oven for 5 mins before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Unroll dough and separate into 8 triangles along the perforated lines. (The dough is easiest to work with when cold straight out of the fridge.).
• Spread 1 teaspoon (may be less or omitted) of cream cheese on dough.
• Place two sausages on the wider end of the dough.
• Roll the dough loosely. Tuck the loose corners of the wider end. The ends of sausages will stick out but will be covered when the dough rises. Slightly bend into crescent shapes.
• Baste the top of the dough with egg whites.
• Bake on a non greased cookie sheet with atleast 3 inches from each other.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown.

Steps:

• Brown sausage in skillet.
• In a bowl, mix sausage with cream cheese.
• Roll out each croissant pkg into a rectangle, pinching together at the seams to make one large piece.
• Place the 1/2 of the cheese mixture down the middle(the entire length of each rectangle) and fold one side of the dough to the middle and the other and pinch the top together at the seam.
• Wrap in plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate over night.
• In the morning, preheat oven according to croissant directions.
• Remove wrap and slice in 1/2 inch slices and place on cookie sheet.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 500 degrees. Spread croissants on a large baking sheet and toast, cut side up, until golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes (watch carefully to see that they do not burn). Let cool, then tear into large bite-size pieces.
• In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, warm the olive oil. Add sliced scallions and sausage meat; cook, breaking up meat with a fork, until mixture is well browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in sage, and remove from heat.
• In a large bowl, toss together croissants and sausage mixture. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, 1 1/2 cups cheese, salt and pepper.
• Lightly oil a 9- x 13-inch baking dish. Turn croissant mixture into pan, spreading it out evenly over the bottom. Pour custard into pan, pressing croissants down gently to help absorb the liquid. Cover pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
• When you're ready to bake the casserole, heat oven to 350 degrees. Scatter the remaining grated cheese over the top of the casserole. Transfer to oven and bake until casserole is golden brown and firm to the touch, 45 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes. Garnish with sliced scallion tops before serving.
