It's Tuesday again, meaning another episode of The Great British Bake Off will air tonight on Channel 4 . The competition is nearing its end, with just a couple of weeks left before the best baker is crowned by judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith. And this week the remaining contestants will be challenged to prepare some classic throwback party food - including a delicious sausage roll, which still remains a hugely popular lunch choice for Brits.
The thought of rich and flavoursome sausage meat encased in a flaky and golden puff pastry is enough to get anyone's mouth watering, with plant-based options also now widely available. But did you know you can make a delicious batch of sausage rolls in your air fryer , using just three ingredients? In less than 20 minutes, you can whip up a golden-brown batch of flaky sausage roll goodness with minimal prep involved, making this the perfect idea for a fuss-free lunch. That's according to Air Fryer Girl on TikTok , who has amassed more than 640k followers thanks to her handy recipe ideas involving the ever-popular kitchen gadget.
She says you can make 'banging' sausage rolls with just three very simple ingredients. Fans of the recipe have commented on the video saying they're 'delicious', with others saying they make this recipe 'all the time'. So if you fancy a snack whilst you tune in to tonight's episode of Bake Off, here's everything you need to know in order to make air fryer sausage rolls.
Air fryer sausage rolls Ingredients Roll of ready-made puff pastry Pack of eight sausages or vegetarian alternative One egg Method First, roll out the ready-made puff pastry and allow it to sit for around 15 minutes whilst you do the rest of the prep. Open up the pack of sausage and use a knife to carefully slice down the centre of each one to pierce the skin. Remove the meat from the skin, and roll it in your hands to create an elongated sausage shape.
Place two of these sausages horizontally at the top of the puff pastry sheet. Whisk up an egg and use this to brush the pastry just below the sausages, before rolling it over just once and slicing it off. Repeat this process until you've run out of the puff pastry, then cut each roll into smaller bite-sized chunks and brush each one of these with the egg as well - this will help to create that glaze.
Put them in your air fryer, using a wire rack to separate the layers if your device isn't big enough. Bake at 180C for 18 minutes, or until the pastry is crisp and golden brown. Serve immediately.
