Each bite is delicious and although they look kind of fancy with that layered pastry puff, these can be ready in under 30 minutes.

In addition, you can make them in advance, then pop them in the oven to warm them up right before serving.

These can also be cooked and then frozen and warmed up when you want a few or the whole batch.

    I usually purchase frozen sausage rolls similar to these and bake for our Christmas morning breakfast. Served with fresh fruit salad. However they are no longer available. Can these be made and frozen until ready to bake and serve warm in the morning? If so, can you give me directions on how to prepare them, freeze and bake.Thanks!

      Hi Margie! You can cook these sausage rolls in advance and let them cool completely before freeing in an airtight container. You may want to put parchment paper between them if you are layering them on top of each other. To reheat, place in the refrigerator overnight, then reheat in the oven at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until warm.
