Ingredients

Scale

For the Pigs in a Blanket

  • 1 package of mini hot dogs (approximately 28 hot dogs)
  • 1 package of crescent roll dough (8 ounces)
  • Cooking spray or additional oil for greasing

For the Glaze

  • 1/3 cup of honey
  • 1/3 cup of brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon of soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper

Optional Garnish

  • Chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare the dough sheet: Open the crescent roll dough package and unroll the dough onto a clean surface. Pinch the seams of the dough triangles together to form one solid sheet instead of separate triangles.
  3. Cut dough into strips: Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, slice the dough sheet into strips about 1 inch wide, suitable for wrapping around each mini hot dog.
  4. Wrap the mini hot dogs: Take each mini hot dog and wrap it with one dough strip, starting at one end and rolling completely to the other. Make sure the dough is snugly secured around the hot dog. Repeat for all mini hot dogs.
  5. Arrange on baking sheet: Place the wrapped mini hot dogs on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart to allow even baking.
  6. Make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
  7. Glaze the wrapped hot dogs: Generously brush the glaze over each wrapped hot dog, ensuring all surfaces are well coated for a flavorful finish.
  8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and fully cooked through.
  9. Cool slightly: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the pigs in a blanket cool for a few minutes to set the glaze and make them easier to handle.
  10. Garnish and serve: If desired, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the pigs in a blanket before serving to add a pop of color and fresh flavor.

Notes

  • Ensure the dough is sealed well around the mini hot dogs to prevent unraveling during baking.
  • You can use regular hot dogs cut into smaller pieces if mini hot dogs are not available.
  • Use parchment paper or lightly grease your baking sheet to avoid sticking.
  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the glaze mixture.
  • These snacks are best served warm for optimal taste and texture.
