Note: This is an older recipe. We have since changed to a plant-based diet and love it. It’s better for our health, all living and the planet.
These rolls are great for lunches, they freeze well and travel well. I always bake version 1 for our son in college and version 2 for our daughter who takes them with her to work. Both love them, as long as I do not get mixed up with who gets version 1 and who gets 2 ;).
Again, I let my KitchenAid Mixer
For version 1 I use a good brand of wiener sausage. A simple hot dog would do, too. But you get what you pay for, so a better one makes a better sausage roll. I always use just half a sausage at a time. I find they bake better and are kind of cute.
For version 2 I use Lyoner sausage, again a bologna does it too, but a good brand Lyoner just tastes better. But, that’s my daughters taste, you might be different. Try it and find your favourite. I simply roll the sausage into the bun as shown in the picture, simple and yummy.
Let the sausage rolls rise till they are about double in size.
Preheat the oven to 400 F, bake for 15 – 20 Minutes
- ½ cup (120ml) butter or oil
- 1 cup (240ml) boiled water
- 1 cup (240ml) milk (cold from the fridge)
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 3 teaspoons instant yeast
- 725 grams = 25.57 ounces flour. I like to use freshly ground spelt but you can use any flour.
- Sausage
- In a KitchenAid Stand Mixer whisk the butter and boiled water till the butter melts.
- Than add milk, egg, sugar, salt and yeast, whisk it all together,
- Let rest till the yeast activates (2-5 minutes)
- Add the flour
- Knead the dough for about 5 minutes
- Cover the dough and let it rise till it is about double in size. (ca. 1 hour).
- By pressing the dough between your thumb and forefinger form about egg sized buns. The dough will fill two sheets.
- Roll the sausage into the bun.
- Let the sausage rolls rise till they are about double in size.

Sometimes I don’t know what I would do without my KitchenAid mixer.
Your sausage rolls look like something my husband would love!
Agree, a KitchenAid mixer is a must have in the kitchen.
As if nothing could be better than home made bread, then you put meat inside!!! This really does look yummy! I am certain your children love you even more for making each of them their favorites! (This does seem to be the winter that never ends, 27 degree F here in the deep south this morning) Pinning!
Teens love bread and meat, so why not bake it together ;). Well, if it is that cold in the south, we should not be complaining.
Those sound great! My son would really like these, he’s 12. I may put some cheese in a few to see how that tastes. And YEAH for another kitchen aid mixer recipe 🙂
They are great with cheese too. My kids just prefer the plain sausage once.
Oh! These look good! And definitely like something my hubby would love!
Looks like I am making some hubby’s happy here, that is good!
It looks so easy – thanks for the recipe!!!
