INGREDIENTS:-

• 10 mini vegan sausages
• 1/2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 tbsp plant-based milk
• 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
• A pinch of salt
• 1 tsp dried herbs

(For the dough)

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 cup plant-based milk, unsweetened
• 4 tbsp vegan butter, melted (or olive oil)

INSTRUCTIONS:-

To make the “blanket”

1. In a large bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Add the milk and butter, and whisk until well-combined and the dough comes together. (If the dough is too dry, add 1-2 tbsp of milk.)
2. Place the lump of dough on a lightly floured surface and roll it out to a rectangle sheet, about 1/8 inch in thickness. Using a cookie cutter, cut the sheet into 1-inch strips.

To assemble the “pigs in a blanket”

3. Roll the strip around each sausage starting from one end of the sausage to the other, and place them on a greased baking sheet.
4. Make the glaze by combining milk and seasoning in a small bowl. Brush the glaze over the spirals.
5. Bake in a preheated oven at 220 degrees C for 10-15 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden, and the sausages are well done.
6. Serve hot with dijon mustard, BBQ sauce or your preferred dipping sauce.
