texas sausage kolache

The easiest sausage kolache recipe! Sometimes known as sausage rolls, cheesy sausage is wrapped around a soft pillowy bread. A popular breakfast and snack in Texas!

Texas Sausage Kolache

Rhodes yeast dinner rolls (frozen dough)

cooking spray

cheese sausage links (fully cooked)

milk

Rise

Place 12 frozen dough 2-3 inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or baking mat. Spray the top of frozen dough with cooking oil and cover with saran wrap. Let it rise for 3.5-4 hours.

Pre-heat

Roll

Pat dry sausage links. Using a rolling pin, roll one risen dough into a flat rectangular/oval shape. Place one sausage link on one side of the dough.

Seal

Wrap sausage link with dough. Apple pressure to press and seal dough. Place sausage + dough seam side down on a baking sheet line with parchment paper or baking mat.

Repeat

Repeat Step 3-4 for the rest of the sausage links and dough balls. Make sure to keep them ~2 inchs apart from each other when placing them on baking sheet - you will probably need two baking sheets.

Let rolled sausage+dough sit and rise for 1 hour.

Brush

Combine egg and milk. Beat to mix well. Brush egg wash onto the top of each kolache pastry.

Bake

Bake for 15-17 minutes (middle rack) or until top is golden brown. Check at 15 minute mark to see if it is done.

Serve

Love it!  Super easy and soooo delicious!  Thank you for sharing!

Does it matter if I use the regular or Texas sized rolls? Also, any tips on adding cheese and jalapeños? Thanks!

I love love love this recipe. But I am trying to make large batches. Would they cook the same if I place them closer together to try and cut back on how many batches I have to bake? Or would this affect the way the rolls bake?

Hi there, Ive made these several times and they're very good! I miss Texas so much for the kolaches 😅 I do have a question though, I have an issue with the bottom getting black and burnt every time. 😔 do you know why this could be?

We moved out of Texas 10 years ago. Florida has a lot of great things, but they lack in good mexican food and KOLACHES! ive been trying to make my own for years. looking forward to trying this! my rhodes rolls are proofing right now! 
would you recommend eckrich smoked sausage? thats what i bought.

These are fantastic, everything is closed when I leave for work so I'm always looking for hand held breakfast items. Thanks
