🎂 A Note on Pastry
Look, some people love making home-made pastry from scratch, and that's cool! But for those of us who are not culinary wizards, or just prefer a shortcut during the hectic holiday season, fear not! Many supermarkets now carry vegan puff pastry!
In the UK, almost all store-bought puff pastry is made using vegetable fat instead of butter (unless stated on the package). Just make sure to check the labels to confirm its plant-based goodness. Your shortcut to a flaky, golden vegan sausage roll wreath awaits!
🍰 How to ROLL a Vegan Sausage Roll Wreath
Let's take a closer look at how to make this vegan sausage roll wreath. This process can be tricky the first time you do it, so I've included four step-by step photos of the rolling process for you! Oh and heads up, you can prepare this recipe up to step 4 and then freeze until you're ready to bake! Easy peasy!
1. Assemble the Wreath: Unroll the puff pastry on the lined baking sheet. Spread the mushroom pate down the centre, leaving two sides without pate. Spoon the sausage mixture onto the pate.
2. Roll the Pastry: Brush one exposed pastry side with plant milk. Use the parchment to roll it into a cylinder.
3. Divide the Rolls: Cut the cylinder into 14, keeping them attached at one end. Shape it into a circle with the attached edge on the inside.
4. Bake: Twist each sausage roll, brush with plant milk, and sprinkle sesame seeds. Bake until golden. Cool for 10 minutes, then place a bowl of cranberry sauce in the center. Voila!

A: For defs! If you're feeling adventurous, try my homemade recipe. Otherwise, many stores offer a variety of vegan mushroom pates for convenience, like this one from Tartex!
