Ingredients

  • 1 can (8 crescents) Pillsbury* Original Crescents or Pillsbury* Multigrain Crescents or Pillsbury* Reduced Fat Crescents
  • 4 tsp (20 mL) spicy brown mustard or Dijon Mustard
  • 1 cup (250 mL) saurkraut, well drained on paper towels
  • 4 cooked smoked bratwurst (thawed if frozen)
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) caraway seed

Steps

  •  
    1
    Heat oven to 375ºF. Spray baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
  •  
    2
    Unroll dough; separate into 4 rectangles. Place on cookie sheet. Press each into 6x4-inch rectangle, firmly pressing perforations to seal.
  •  
    3
    Spread 1 teaspoon mustard over each rectangle to within 1/2 inch of edges. Place 1/4 cup sauerkraut and 1 bratwurst lengthwise down center of each rectangle.
  •  
    4
    On long sides of each rectangle, make 5 cuts at an angle and 1 inch apart almost to edge of sauerkraut. For braided appearance, fold strips of dough at an angle across bratwurst with ends of strips slightly overlapping, alternating from side to side; press ends to seal. Brush tops with egg; sprinkle with caraway seed.
  •  
    5
    Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until deep golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm with additional mustard, if desired.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Tip: Use cooked bratwurst because the uncooked variety will not cook completely in the short bake time. Be sure the bratwurst label indicates that it is fully cooked.
