Ingredients & Substitutions
You can find the full printable recipe, including ingredient quantities, below. But first, here are some explanations of ingredients and steps to help you make this recipe perfect every time.
- Vegan Sausage: Use your favorite plant-based sausage. Crumbled varieties work best—look for brands with bold, smoky, or spiced flavors. I like using Beyond Beef Sausage, Impossible Sausage, or Gimme Lean.
- Puff Pastry: Opt for vegan-friendly puff pastry (check the label for butter-free options). I use Pepperidge Fam Puff Pastry, but as ingredients can change, always check the labels. Let the puff pastry thaw in the fridge for easy handling.
- Breadcrumbs: Use plain or seasoned breadcrumbs for added flavor. Panko adds a slightly crunchier texture.
- Vegan Butter: Softened vegan butter ensures the egg wash has a smooth, silky finish.
- Plant-Based Milk: Almond, oat, or soy milk all work beautifully for the wash.
- Maple Syrup: This secret ingredient enhances the golden crust and adds a delicate sweetness.
What Makes This Recipe Shine?
- These Vegan Sausage Rolls combine the buttery, flaky texture of puff pastry with a hearty, savory filling.
- The breadcrumbs add a light texture, binding the mixture while enhancing the sausage’s flavor.
- The vegan egg wash ensures a beautifully golden crust, while the subtle hint of maple syrup adds a touch of sweetness to balance the savory notes.
- Each bite is a perfect harmony of flaky layers and rich filling.

How to Make Vegan Sausage Rolls
Here’s a simple breakdown of how to make vegan sausage rolls. For the full recipe, check out the printable recipe card below.
Step One: Preparation
Preheat your oven to 420°F (210°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Ensure your puff pastry and vegan sausage are fully thawed before you start.
Step Two: Prepare the Pastry
Place one sheet of puff pastry on a clean, lightly floured surface. Cut the sheet in half, then repeat with the second sheet, creating four long strips of pastry.
Step Three: Mix the Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine the vegan sausage and breadcrumbs. Stir until the mixture is well blended and evenly combined.
Step Four: Fill, Roll, and Slice
Divide the sausage mixture into four even portions. Place one portion onto each strip of pastry, shaping it into a log along one edge of the strip (leave a little room from the edges). See the photo for a visual reference.
Fold the pastry over the filling, overlapping slightly. To seal the roll, dip your finger in water and gently run it along the edge of the pastry before pressing it to close. Flip the roll so the seam is facing down.
Cut each log into six equal pieces (about 1 1/2 inches each), creating 24 rolls in total. Score the tops of each roll with a knife to allow steam to escape while baking.
Step Five: Brush and Bake
For the vegan egg wash, mix vegan butter, plant-based milk, and maple syrup until smooth. Brush this mixture generously over the tops of each roll.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, rotating the tray halfway through. The sausage rolls are done when the pastry is golden and puffed up.
Step Six: Cool and Serve
Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. They’re perfect on their own or served with your favorite dipping sauces (see my favorite options below)!
Serving Suggestions
Sausage rolls are so irresistibly delicious, they’re sure to disappear straight off the plate! But if you want to take them to the next level, pairing them with a variety of dipping sauces can add a fun and flavorful twist. Here are some of my favorite vegan-friendly dips to serve alongside:
- Vegan Honey Mustard: A perfect balance of tangy and sweet.
- Plant-Based Ranch Dip: Creamy, herby goodness that never goes out of style.
- Vegan Blue Cheese Dressing: Rich and indulgent, with just the right amount of tang.
- Date-Sweetened BBQ Sauce: Smoky and naturally sweet—great for BBQ lovers.
Whether you’re serving them at a party, packing them for lunch, or enjoying them as a snack, these dips will make every bite even more satisfying!
Storing Sausage Rolls
- Refrigerate: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 10 minutes.
- Freeze: Arrange unbaked rolls on a tray, freeze until solid, and transfer to a freezer bag. Bake from frozen, adding 5-10 minutes to the baking time.
