Description

Delightful mini hot dogs wrapped in flaky pastry make the perfect party snack! They are crispy, golden-brown, and irresistibly tasty—ideal for any gathering or cozy night in.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 mini hot dogs (beef or turkey)
  • 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp water
  • Mustard or ketchup (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll Out the Puff Pastry: Unroll the thawed puff pastry on a clean surface; optionally dust with flour to prevent sticking.
  3. Cut the Pastry: Cut the puff pastry into rectangles large enough to wrap around each mini hot dog.
  4. Wrap the Mini Hot Dogs: Place one mini hot dog at one end of each rectangle and roll it up tightly.
  5. Prepare Egg Wash: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water for the egg wash.
  6. Apply Egg Wash: Arrange all wrapped mini hot dogs on your prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with egg wash for a golden finish.
  7. Bake Until Golden Brown: Bake in your preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until puffed up and golden brown.
  8. Serve Immediately: Transfer to plates and serve hot with mustard or ketchup.
