Everything Bagel Mini Pigs In A Blanket Recipe

A classic appetizer recipe given a new boost of flavor will make this everything bagel mini pigs in a blanket recipe one of the first dishes to go at your next party.

Prep Time - 10 minutes
Cook Time - 25 minutes
Total Time - 35 minutes

Ingredients
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed and rolled out according to packaging

1 12-ounce pack of little smokies (I used beef)
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400 - 425°F - whatever the directions of the puff pastry packaging say is best to bake it at. Spray a half-sheet baking pan with non-stick spray or for easier clean up, line with greased foil, parchment paper, or a silpat.

2. Cut unbaked puff pastry into equally sized rectangles for the number of little smokies you have, approximately 35. I like having the entire sausage covered but you may wish to have part of the sausage showing, so keep this in mind when cutting the pastry width.

3. Roll 1 sausage in each puff pastry rectangle. Place seam side down onto the baking sheet at least once inch apart. Repeat until all sausages are in their blankets.

4. Brush beaten egg over the top of each pig in the blanket. Then sprinkle each pig in a blanket with a bit of the everything bagel seasoning blend.

5. Bake the pigs in a blanket in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until pastry is puffed and golden brown.

6. Place baked pigs in a blanket on a serving platter and serve immediately.

Notes
The pigs in a blanket can be pre-made to the stage of rolling in puff pastry and refrigerated up to the night before serving. I do not recommend brushing with egg wash and baking until just before serving as they can start to get soggy after sitting for more than an hour or two.
