Ingredients

  • 1 sheet thawed puff pastry
  • 6 hotdogs cut into 4 pieces each (24 total pcs)
  • 24 slices pepperoncinis or banana pepper rings (from jar)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp water
  • poppy seeds
  • celery salt or seeds

Creamy Dip

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 TBS yellow mustard
  • 2 TBS sweet or dill relish
  • 1 TBS dried onion
  • 1-2 tsp pepperoncini or banana pepper juice from jar
  • 1/4 tsp celery salt or seed
  • 1/2 medium tomatoes, diced

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Unroll 1 sheet of thawed puff pastry sheet onto a sheet of parchment and remove any paper. Using a rolling pin, roll out pastry to even it out into a rectangular shape.
  • Cut 6 strips on the long end. Cut 4 strips through the 6 strips to create 24 small rectangular shapes.
  • Cut each hotdog into 4 pieces to equal 24 pieces. Place 1 piece of hotdog in center of each small pastry. Top with 1 slice of pepperoncini or banana pepper ring.
  • Whisk egg and 1 tsp of water in a small bowl until frothy. Brush 1 corner of each pastry with egg wash.
  • Bring over the opposite side tip of pastry up over the hotdog. Bring over the egg washed tip of pastry to attach and seal together at the top.
    NOTE: allow the hotdog and pepperoncini to peak out of the pastry.
  • Use remaining egg wash to brush on the tops. Sprinkle with poppy seed and celery seed on top of the egg washed pastries.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 16-20 minutes until golden brown and puffy.

Creamy Dip

  • In a small bowl whisk together mayonnaise, mustard, relish, dried onion, pepperoncini juice, and celery seed.
  • Serve the dip in a small serving bowl with diced tomatoes on top. Place Pigs in a Blanket around the dip. Enjoy.
