Detailed Directions and Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the Pigs in a Blanket
Unroll a package of crescent roll dough on a clean surface. Separate the dough into triangles.
Wrap the Hot Dogs
Place a hot dog on the wide end of each triangle and roll the dough around it. Make sure to seal the edges to keep the filling inside.
Arrange on a Baking Sheet
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the wrapped hot dogs on the baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
Brush with Egg Wash
In a small bowl, beat an egg and brush it over the tops of the wrapped hot dogs to create a golden finish.
Bake in the Oven
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the dough is golden brown.
Prepare the Glaze
While the pigs in a blanket are baking, combine brown sugar, Dijon mustard, and a splash of Worcestershire sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar has dissolved.
Glaze the Pigs in a Blanket
Once the pigs in a blanket are golden brown, remove them from the oven and immediately brush the glaze over the top of each piece.
Return to Oven
Return the glazed pigs in a blanket to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes to set the glaze.
