Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground beef, rolled oats, parsley, onion, garlic, soy sauce, ground black pepper, and salt. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
Lay out the whole wheat puff pastry sheets on a clean, flat surface. If they are not pre-rolled, use a rolling pin to flatten them slightly.
Divide the beef mixture into two equal parts. Place one portion of the beef mixture along the long edge of a puff pastry sheet, shaping it into a log.
Carefully roll the pastry sheet around the beef mixture to encase it, forming a log. Press the seam lightly to seal.
Repeat the process with the second pastry sheet and the remaining beef mixture.
Cut each log into four equal pieces, yielding eight sausage rolls.
Place the sausage rolls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use the beaten egg to brush the tops of each roll to give them a nice glaze.
Lightly spray the rolls with olive oil spray to help them crisp up.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the beef is fully cooked.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these heart-healthy beef sausage rolls warm or at room temperature.
