Ingredients

6: oz bulk hot pork sausage

1/4: teaspoon garlic powder

1: can (15 oz) pizza sauce

1: box Pillsbury™ refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on box

1: egg, beaten

Steps

1 Heat oven to 425°F. In 8-inch skillet, cook sausage over medium-high heat 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally until thoroughly cooked; drain well. Stir in garlic powder and 1/4 cup of the pizza sauce.
2 Remove 1 crust from pouch. On work surface, roll into 13-inch round. With 3-inch round cutter, cut 11 rounds. Repeat with second crust.

Expert Tips

Flaky Sausage Foldovers can be assembled ahead, making them a great option for holiday parties. Just follow the recipe through step 3. Freeze the foldovers on the cookie sheet until firm, then transfer to a resealable freezer plastic bag. Label with a "use by" date two months after the preparation date. To serve, remove the desired number of appetizers from the bag and bake as directed in step 4, adding about 5 minutes, until the foldovers are golden brown. Since a portion of the pizza sauce is used in the filling and the rest as a dip, purchase pizza sauce in the squeezable container, and keep it in the refrigerator.
