Homemade Sausage, Bean and Cheese Melts
Sorry, but this had to be done đIt was only a matter of time before these beauties made it to the blog! If youâre reading this from outside the UK, please, let me very quickly bring you up to speed. Popular bakery in the UK, sell pastries stuffed with cheese, sausages and beans, here is my take on them. There, done đ€ŁFriends from the UK, as you were. Truth of the matter is these are delicious and making them at home couldnât be easier. Hereâs what youâll need:
Puff Pastry (store bought) Can of Sausages & Beans Cheese Egg (for egg wash)
Thatâs it! Plus itâs all gonna go down in under 30minutes. Follow me.
Making Sausage, Bean and Cheese Melts
Potentially one of the easiest recipes Iâve uploaded to the blog. Hereâs a couple of tips to get you going:
Youâll need to drain off most of the bean sauce before plonking on the pastry, otherwise itâll leak out too much when baking. Slice the sausages in half, just to distribute the filling more evenly. Firmly crimp down the edges with a fork to ensure the slices stay intact.
Once youâve stacked and folded the slices youâll want to give them a good brush of egg wash, just to give them a nice golden finish. Slice a couple of steam holes on top then throw them (and by throw I mean carefully place) them in the oven to bake!
Tins of sausages and beans are commonly found in the UK, and I believe in the US youâre looking for cans of âPork and Beansâ. If you canât get your hands on any feel free to add cooked sausage, or just use beans! Cheese non-negotiable đ
Can these be made ahead of time?
Yep! Perfect for freezing as well. Iâve added some more info on this in the recipe card below. If youâre looking for similar recipes definitely check out my Cheese & Bacon Turnovers, Steak Bakes and Cheese & Onion Pasties! For more similar recipes gives these a ganders too:
