How to Make Make Ahead Flaky Sausage Foldovers
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large skillet, cook sausage over medium-high heat for 6-8 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon, until thoroughly cooked. Drain well.
- Stir in garlic powder and 1/4 cup of the pizza sauce.
- Unroll one pie crust on a lightly floured surface. Roll it out slightly to a 15-inch circle (if needed).
- Using a 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 11 circles. Repeat with the second pie crust.
- Place about 1 teaspoon of the sausage mixture onto the center of each circle.
- Fold each circle in half to form a half-moon shape. Press edges firmly to seal.
- Using a fork, crimp the edges to seal completely.
- Cut a small slit in the top of each foldover with a sharp knife.
- Place the foldovers on an ungreased large baking sheet.
- Brush each foldover with the beaten egg.
- (Optional) Cut decorative shapes from any remaining dough scraps and attach with beaten egg.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While the foldovers bake, heat the remaining 1/4 cup pizza sauce in a small saucepan over low heat.
- Serve warm sausage foldovers immediately with the warm pizza sauce for dipping.
- **To Make Ahead:** Follow steps 1-3. Freeze the unbaked foldovers on the baking sheet until firm, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. Freeze for up to 2 months. To bake from frozen, add about 5 minutes to the baking time.
