Puff Pastry Wrapped Kielbasa with Mustard and Everything Seasoning

This recipe has the classic ”Pigs in A Blanket” feel with a few ingredient tweaks and viola! You have an updated but equally delicious one-bite Holiday Appetizer! Swapping the traditional Lil’ Smokies for Kielbasa and the dough for Puff Pastry, these are so addicting, you’ll want to make them over and over again. The layer of Mustard between the pastry and sausage gives it an elevated flavor and who doesn’t love Everything Bagel Seasoning these days?! Be sure to serve extra mustard on the side to dip and watch how fast they fly off the plate!

Ingredients:

*depending on how many people you’re serving each sheet of puff pastry and One Kielbasa link will make about 18 bites.

One Sheet Frozen Puff Pastry

One Link of Kielbasa

Whole Grain or German Mustard

1 Egg

Everything Bagel Seasoning

1. Preheat oven to 400°

2. Take the sheet of Puff Pastry out and let it thaw on counter. This will take about 10-15 minutes.

3. Cut the Pastry into 3 long sections (I did this along the folded seems) then again in half. So you will get 6 pieces in total.

4. Spread Mustard on each of the pieces of Pastry.

5. Cut the Kielbasa into pieces that will fit the width of your Pastry. (**The pastry is about 3 inches wide, so I cut my Kielbasa into 3" chunks to lay on the pastry)

6. Roll the sausage once around fully so the seem is on the bottom.

7. Cut each of those into three 1" bite size pieces. You should be able to get 18 pieces once you wrap each piece of kielbasa with Puff Pastry.

8. Place on a parchment lined sheet pan seem side down. Brush each piece lightly with egg wash (just scramble the egg in a small bowl and use a pastry brush)

9. Sprinkle each piece with the Everything Bagel Seasoning

10. Bake for about 13-15 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.

11. Enjoy!!

I Hope you love these as much as we do!! Serve with extra Mustard on the side and if you're wanting to add another element of flavor you can even serve with a small side of Sauerkraut! Please be sure to post your feedback in the comments below and on social media using hashtag #saltsandseasons
