We’re sure you’ll agree that there’s no better appetizer than pigs in blankets, right? Plus, these are so easy to prepare.
Ingredients:
2 sheet(s) frozen pastry dough
12 all-beef hot dogs
1 large Egg
1/4 tsp. salt
poppy seeds
Preparation:
- Heat the oven to 425°F. Line one baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll 1 puff pastry dough sheet into a 12- by 14-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. First, cut rectangle in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 3 equal pieces to get a total of 6 pastry pieces.
- Make sure hot dogs are dry (you can pat them with paper towels). Use a fork to pierce each one several times.
- Whisk egg and salt together to get an egg wash.
- Roll one hot dog at a time in 1 puff pastry piece, and then put some egg wash on it.
- Once wrapped in pastry, put the hot dogs on the baking sheet and brush them with the remaining egg wash, sprinkling poppy seeds on top.
- Bake for about 20 minutes (until golden brown). When done, slice each pastry-wrapped hot dog into 5 pieces.
