  • STEP 1
    Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, ground beef, breadcrumbs (if using), diced apple, salt, black pepper, dried sage, dried thyme, nutmeg, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, minced garlic, grated onion, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
  • STEP 2
    On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick. Transfer the rolled pastry onto parchment paper that fits your air fryer basket.
  • STEP 3
    Add the Filling: Spread the meat mixture down the center of the pastry sheet, leaving a generous border along the edges. Shape the mixture with your hands to form a neat log.
  • STEP 4
    Plait the Pastry: Cut diagonal strips about 1 inch wide along both sides of the pastry, up to the edge of the meat filling. Starting at one end, alternately fold the strips over the filling, creating a braided or plaited effect. Press the ends to seal.
  • STEP 5
    Egg Wash: Brush the pastry with the beaten egg, ensuring all exposed surfaces are covered. This will give your sausage plait a beautiful golden finish.
  • STEP 6
    Place the sausage plait carefully into the air fryer basket. Cook for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown. You may need to adjust the cooking time depending on the size of your air fryer.
