Best-Ever Pigs in a Blanket
Pigs in a Blanket Recipe by Kelli Foster from The Kitchn.
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 13 to 15 minutes
Serving size: Makes 24
Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon water
- 1 (12- to 14-ounce) package of cocktail-sized smoked sausages or little smokies
- 1 (8-ounce) can refrigerated crescent roll dough
- Flaky salt or everything bagel spice, for sprinkling (optional)
Directions
- Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to 375ºF. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Whisk together an egg and the water in a small bowl until combined.
- Pat the sausages or little smokies dry with paper towels.
- Unroll the crescent roll dough on a work surface. Separate the dough along the perforated seams into 8 triangles.
- Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut each triangle lengthwise into 3 narrow triangles.
- Place 1 sausage at the wide end of a dough triangle. Roll towards the pointed end, wrapping the dough around the sausage and allowing the dough to overlap.
- Place all of the rolled pigs in a blanket on the prepared baking sheet with some space in between each.
- Brush the tops and sides of the dough with a thin layer of egg wash and top with flaky salt or everything bagel spice (if desired).
- Bake until the dough is puffed and golden brown which will take approximately 13 to 15 minutes.
- Serve warm with mustard, ketchup, or your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!
