Ingrédients
  

  • 8 hot dogs or sausages
  • 1 sheet puff pastry about 8 oz / 230 g, thawed
  • 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)
  • Mustard or ketchup for “eyes”
  • Optional: sesame seeds for decoration

Method
 

  1. Preheat: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C); then line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare pastry strips: Unroll the puff pastry and cut into thin strips (about ½ inch / 1 cm wide).
  3. Wrap the hot dogs: Next, wrap each hot dog in pastry strips, leaving a small gap near the top for the “face.”
  4. Brush with egg: Meanwhile, place the wrapped hot dogs on the baking sheet and brush with beaten egg for a golden finish.
  5. Bake: Finally, bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown. Let cool slightly before adding small dots of mustard or ketchup for the eyes.
  6. Tips & Variations
  7. Add a slice of cheese under the pastry for extra gooeyness.
  8. Use mini sausages for bite-size appetizers.
  9. For a sweeter version, try wrapping banana halves in puff pastry and dusting with cinnamon sugar.
