- 1 (8-ounce) can refrigerated crescent rolls
- 4 plant-based hot dogs
- 2 slices vegan cheese (optional)
Preparation
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prep the dough and hot dogs: Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into 8 triangles. Cut each hot dog in half crosswise.
- Add the cheese (optional): Cut each cheese slice into 4 strips and place one strip on the wide end of each triangle.
- Wrap: Place a hot dog half on the wide end of each triangle and roll it up toward the point. Place seam side down on the baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool for a couple of minutes before serving.
Tips
- Add a sweet and tangy layer: Before wrapping, brush the inside of each triangle with a mix of Dijon mustard and a splash of maple syrup.
- Make them golden: Brush the tops with melted vegan butter or plant-based milk before baking for extra color and shine.
- Make them bite-size: Cut each hot dog into thirds and each triangle in half lengthwise for party-size bites.
- Serve with dips: Ketchup, mustard, or barbecue sauce all work well.
