Yield Makes 20

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons toasted wheat germ
1/4 cup chilled vegetable shortening
1/3 cup buttermilk or plain yogurt
1 large egg yolk
10 frankfurters, ends trimmed and frankfurters halved crosswise

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. and grease a large baking sheet.
  • In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and wheat germ. Blend in shortening with a pastry blender or your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. In a small bowl whisk together buttermilk or yogurt and yolk and stir into flour mixture, stirring until mixture just forms a moist dough.
  • Knead dough 4 times on a floured surface and with a floured rolling pin roll out into a 12-inch square. Cut dough into 1 1/2-inch-wide strips and roll a strip around middle of a frankfurter until dough just overlaps. Cut pig-in-blanket free from strip and make 19 more pigs-in-blankets in same manner, arranging them, seam sides down, as they are made on prepared baking sheet. Pigs-in-blankets may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
  • Bake pigs-in-blankets in upper third of oven until pale golden, about 15 minutes. Makes 20 pigs-in-blankets.

I followed the recipe exactly but my pigs in blankets didn't turn out as good as I expected. They were a little bland.

These pigs in blankets were a little dry for my taste. I think I would add some extra butter or oil next time.

So easy to make and so tasty! I used a variety of sausages and cheeses and they all turned out great.

These were delicious! The combination of the sausage, cheese, and crescent roll was perfect. I will definitely be making these again.

I've made these pigs in blankets several times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. They're perfect for parties or potlucks.
