Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface until thin.

In a bowl, combine pork sausage meat, grated apple, finely chopped onion, sage, thyme, salt, black pepper, nutmeg, and minced garlic.

Mix the ingredients until well combined.

Spoon the sausage mixture along the center of the pastry, forming a log shape.

Brush the edges of the pastry with beaten egg.

Fold the pastry over the filling and seal the edges by pressing firmly.

Place the roll seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Brush the top of the pastry with more beaten egg.

Cut a few slits in the top of the pastry to allow steam to escape.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and puffed up.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing.
