Easy Dijon Sausage Breakfast Pastries Recipe
I have a confession, I don't often use canned biscuits as an ingredient in my recipes. That said, they're convenient and work like a charm for these sausage filled pastries. For a time saver, I often make the filling the night before I plan to serve them and pop it into the fridge overnight to chill. The next morning, I quickly roll out the dough rounds, stuff them with the prepared filling and bake them off just before serving fresh from the oven piping hot.
How to Make the Best Dijon Sausage Breakfast Pastries Recipe
- Ingredients you'll need to make homemade Dijon Sausage Breakfast Pastries: Canned biscuits, breakfast sausage, Dijon mustard, softened plain cream cheese, green onions, worcestershire sauce, granulated garlic or garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper and one large egg beaten with water for the egg wash.
- Kitchen tools you'll need: A large non stick surface or silicone mat, skillet, large spoon or rubber spatula, measuring cups and spoons, small bowl, whisk or fork, pastry brush and sheet pan for baking.
- When making these easy biscuit pastries, there can be variables. By that I mean, depending on how liberal you are when filling the dough, you may be able to yield more than sixteen pastries from one batch of filling.
- I recommend having an extra can of biscuits on hand just in case you can stretch the filling into more servings.
- You might also choose to make a half batch and freeze the leftover filling in an airtight container for a future breakfast treat. It will keep for up to 2 months.
- You can use fresh chives in place of green onions in the sausage filling.
- Bake a batch and pack them up to take to your next office or church potluck and watch 'em go.
- Store baked Dijon Sausage Breakfast Pastries chilled in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in single servings in the microwave.

Notes
