Mini Piggies in a Blanket
Learn how to make Mini Piggies in a Blanket, the ultimate party snack! These easy, delicious, bite-sized treats are perfect for any gathering or casual snacking.
Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated crescent dough (with 12 croissants)
- 24 cocktail sausages pre-cooked
- 1-2 eggs beaten (for egg wash)
- 1 tsp poppyseeds for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to the temperature indicated on the croissant dough package. This is usually around 350°F (175°C).
- Open the refrigerated can of croissant dough and carefully unroll it. You'll find 12 triangular pieces of dough.
- Cut along the perforated lines of the dough triangles to make 24 smaller triangles. This will provide enough dough to wrap around each mini sausage.
- Take one of the smaller dough triangles and place a mini sausage at the wide end of the triangle. Roll the dough around the sausage. Repeat with all the sausages and dough triangles.
- In a small bowl, beat the eggs. Using a pastry brush or your fingers, lightly brush each wrapped sausage with the beaten egg. This will help the dough brown nicely during baking.
- Place the prepared mini piggies in a blanket on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure to leave some space between each one to allow for even baking.
- Put the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-18 minutes, or until the piggies in a blanket are golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
- Once baked, remove the mini piggies in a blanket from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. You can serve them with your favorite dipping sauces like ketchup, mustard, or barbecue sauce.
