Preparation

Step 1

1. Cut brats into 1.5 inch long pieces.
2. Unfold and smooth out a sheet of thawed puff pastry on a lightly flowered surface (do not roll the dough thin or manipulate it much or it won’t puff as much as it should – keep second sheet wrapped until ready to use).
3. Use a pizza cutter to cut the dough. Divide the dough into 3 long strips then make 7 rectangles of each strip (use pizza cutter) and then cut the rectangles on an angle to form triangles.
4. Put a little grainy mustard and sauerkraut in the center of each triangle then roll it around a brat piece, sealing the point to the base of the triangle with a tiny brushing of egg wash.
5. Space about an inch apart - they will puff up
6. Space and inch or so apart on a parchment lined baking sheet, then lightly brush the tops lightly with egg wash.
7. Bake in preheated 400F oven for 20-22 minutes or until as brown as you like them. Remove from sheet pan to a paper towel laid over a cooling rack.
