Ingredients
Scale
For the Wreath
- Nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
- 1 tube refrigerated crescent roll dough sheet
- 26 mini hot dogs
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- Everything seasoning, to taste
For Serving
- Ketchup, as desired
- Mustard, as desired
- Optional: rosemary sprigs for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the baking surface: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a round baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Roll out crescent dough: Unroll the refrigerated crescent roll dough onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing seams together to form one large rectangular sheet.
- Spread mustard: Evenly spread the 1/4 cup of Dijon mustard over the entire surface of the dough, providing a tangy base for the pig in a blanket.
- Arrange mini hot dogs: Place the mini hot dogs lengthwise side by side over the mustard layer, covering the dough sheet.
- Wrap the hot dogs: Carefully fold the dough over each mini hot dog, ensuring that they are fully wrapped inside the dough sheet to create individual pigs in a blanket.
- Form the wreath shape: Gently bring the wrapped hot dogs together in a circle to form a wreath shape. Pinch the seams together securely to hold the wreath intact.
- Apply egg wash and season: Brush the entire wreath with the beaten egg wash to give it a golden, shiny finish. Generously sprinkle everything seasoning all over the egg-washed dough for extra flavor and texture.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20-25 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
- Garnish and serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Optionally, garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs for a festive look. Serve with ketchup and mustard on the side for dipping.
Notes
- Ensure the hot dogs are fully wrapped to prevent dough from opening during baking.
- Everything seasoning typically includes sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, dried onion, and salt.
- Use refrigerated crescent roll dough for best flaky texture and easy handling.
- Allow the baked wreath to cool for a few minutes before cutting to maintain shape.
- Customize dipping sauces by adding spicy mustard or cheese sauce for variety.
