My girls love to eat hot dogs. G2 even asks for them for breakfast! I like them to get some bread with their dogs, but 2 and 3 year olds and flimsy hot dog buns don't exactly marry well!
I decided to get a little creative with an item that is quickly becoming a staple in our home! Frozen Bread Dough.
I've always used it for the "traditional" use... a loaf of bread, but have been trying other things lately with it (you're sure to see it in many of my future posts!) So, I decided to try it as the dough of Pigs in Blankets, and use full sized hot dogs.
I thawed the dough and cut it (scissors works best) into 10 chunks. I've cut it into 8 chunks in the past, but according to The Hubs I should have done 10 or 12, but he's more about the meat than the bread. So 10 it was this time!
Sprinkle flour on your counter and roll out each chunk to pretty thin.
Then put a hot dog, uncooked, at one end of your flattened dough.
Roll it all up. Yes, the dough will overlap at least once most likely, it's ok.
Dip your finger in water and rub your finger under the dough where the seam is. This will 'glue' your bread together.
I baked mine on a baking stone, but it's not mandatory.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
Top with chilli and cheese (which is what we did in the past) or dip ketchup and mustard, or do whatever else you like on your hot dogs!
