A Sausage Roll Wreath is the ultimate Christmas party food and a real crowd-pleaser.
This wreath makes a family-friendly snack the kids will love. You can also serve the wreath as a hot or cold appetizer at your festive gatherings.
If you are feeding a crowd, double the quantities and make a two-row wreath or two separate ones.
All you need is store-bought pizza dough (you can use puff pastry, too), sausages, and ketchup.
Serve with any dip you like - ketchup, mustard, aioli, or chili mayo. So good!

Ingredients
Instructions
Makes 24 rolls.
1. Turn on the oven to 200º C (400º F).
2. Roll the dough out into a rectangle.
3. Cut it down the middle and then across to make 12 smaller equal-sized rectangles.
4. Halve each rectangle diagonally into triangles.
5. Spread half a teaspoon of ketchup (or mustard, or chili sauce, etc) on each triangle, or omit.
6. Cut the sausages into four pieces.
7. Place a piece of sausage on the wider end, tuck in the sides, and roll it up like a croissant.
8. Repeat with the remaining sausages.
9. Beat an egg together in a small bowl.
10. Brush the sausage rolls with the egg wash.
11. Arrange the rolls in a circle. It might help to place a bowl in the center (I used 18 rolls for my wreath, so I had some leftover).
12. Bake in the oven on parchment paper for 10-12 minutes until they are golden brown.
13. Allow to cool.
14. Decorate with basil leaves (or rosemary twigs) and a red pepper (or real) bow.
15. To make the red pepper bow, slice off the bottom curvy bit of the pepper. Cut it in half and trim the two curves into a bow shape. Now, slice two pieces of red pepper for the ties and fasten them with toothpicks.
