Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the rolled oats, walnuts, and sunflower seeds into a food processor. Pulse until the mixture forms a coarse, crumbly texture.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped mushrooms, onion, and garlic. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened, and most of the moisture has evaporated.
Transfer the sautéed mixture to the food processor with the oats, walnuts, and sunflower seeds. Add soy sauce or tamari, nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, ground sage, salt, and black pepper.
Pulse the food processor until all ingredients are combined into a sticky mixture resembling a sausage filling. Avoid overprocessing; you want some texture to remain.
Roll out the vegan puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut the pastry into two long rectangular strips.
Spoon half of the sausage filling along the center of each strip, forming a log shape.
Carefully fold one side of the pastry over the filling, then roll it until the seam is at the bottom. Press gently to seal.
Trim any excess pastry and cut each log into 4 equal pieces, creating 8 rolls in total.
Place the sausage rolls onto the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with plant-based milk for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden.
Allow the sausage rolls to cool slightly before serving. They can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
