Easy Vegetarian Cranberry Sausage Hand Pies ~ Toddler Friendly!

Preparing meals for my tiny human can be tough with a full-time career, weekly exercise routine, daily errands, and just plain ol being tired! So every once in a while I'd like to make something that takes less than an hour and doesn't involve a million ingredients!

So while I'm not a huge fan of using puff pastry, I must admit it made this recipe super easy peasy and the soft dough is perfect for little toddler gums!

Recipe Deets
1 package Gimme Lean sausage
1 package puff pastry (2 sheets)
1/4 cup cranberry sauce
1 egg (beaten)
handful of chopped scallions
a few pinches of freshly chopped sage (or dried if not available)
a small spoon full of mince garlic (fresh or jar)

Preheat oven to 350
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl
- Roll out pastry sheets
- Divide sausage mixture in half and form in the shape of a log (as long as the puff pastry sheet)
- Place each "log" in the middle of both sheets, then roll the sheet and seal in mixture
- Cut each pastry log into 4 even pieces and place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper
- With a scissor, cut little "slits" in the top (see photos above) and brush some egg or egg white on the top of each piece
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until lightly golden

Serve warm for adults and cooled for sensitive little mouthes

YUMAROO!
