Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Oven and Dough: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Open the refrigerated crescent roll dough and gently unroll it on a clean surface. Separate the dough into its pre-scored triangles.

2. 2

   Wrap the Hot Dogs: Take each hot dog and slice it into thirds if using regular size or leave cocktail weiners whole. Place each piece on the wide end of a crescent roll triangle, then roll it tightly towards the point, encasing the hot dog in dough.

3. 3

   Apply Egg Wash: Crack the egg into a small bowl and whisk it. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat each wrapped hot dog with the egg wash to achieve a beautiful golden brown when baked.

4. 4

   Add Seasonings: Sprinkle your choice of optional seasonings such as sea salt flakes, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, everything bagel seasoning, or a pinch of garlic powder on top of the egg wash for added flavor and texture.

5. 5

   Bake: Arrange the pigs in a blanket on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the dough is puffed and golden brown.

6. 6

   Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm with your preferred dipping sauces such as ketchup, mustard, or cheese sauce for dipping.
