A Sausage Roll Wreath is the ultimate Christmas party food and a real crowd-pleaser. All you need is store-bought pizza dough (you can use puff pastry, too), sausages, and ketchup.
Serve the wreath at your festive gatherings as a hot or cold appetizer or enjoy it as a family-friendly snack. If you are feeding a crowd, double the quantities and make a two-row arrangement. It’s delicious with any dip you like – ketchup, mustard, aioli, or chili mayo.

Recipe Tip
To make the red pepper bow, slice off the bottom curvy bit of the pepper. Cut it in half and trim one section into a bow shape. Now, slice two pieces of red pepper for the ties and fasten them with toothpicks (be sure not to eat these).
Sausage Roll Wreath
Equipment
- parchment paper
Ingredients
- 280 grams pizza dough, storebought, 1 roll
- 6 sausages
- 3 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 egg
- 1 red pepper
- fresh basil, or rosemary twigs
Instructions
- Turn on the oven to 200º C (400º F).
- Roll the dough out into a rectangle.
- Cut it down the middle and then across to make 12 smaller equal-sized rectangles.
- Halve each rectangle diagonally into triangles.
- Spread half a teaspoon of ketchup (or mustard, or chili sauce, etc) on each triangle, or omit.
- Cut the sausages into four pieces.
- Place a piece of sausage on the wider end, tuck in the sides, and roll it up like a croissant.
- Repeat with the remaining sausages.
- Beat an egg together in a small bowl.
- Brush the sausage rolls with the egg wash.
- 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).
- Bake in the oven on parchment paper for 10-12 minutes until they are golden brown.
- Allow to cool.
- Decorate with basil leaves (or rosemary twigs) and a red pepper (or real) bow.
