Ingredients
-
8 hot dogs
-
1 (8-ounce) package refrigerated crescent rolls
-
1 teaspoon yellow mustard (optional)
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Prepare crescent dough: Unroll the package of refrigerated crescent rolls and separate them into triangles.
-
Wrap the hot dogs: Take one hot dog and wrap a triangle of crescent dough around it, leaving the top part of the hot dog exposed (this will be the “head”).
-
Arrange the wrapped hot dogs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
(Optional) Brush mustard: If desired, brush a light layer of yellow mustard over the dough for extra flavor.
-
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
-
Serve warm: Once baked, remove the Hot Dog Mummies from the oven, and serve immediately.
Notes
-
For a more flavorful twist, consider adding a slice of cheese inside the crescent dough before wrapping it around the hot dog.
-
You can also use bratwurst or veggie sausages as an alternative to traditional hot dogs.
-
Hot Dog Mummies can be made ahead of time, wrapped, and stored in the fridge until ready to bake.
