Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
In a small bowl, mix poppy seeds, white sesame seeds, black sesame seeds, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion, and flaky salt to create the everything bagel seasoning.
Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles. Cut each triangle into 3 long strips to make 24 pieces.
Brush each dough strip lightly with Dijon mustard. Place one mini hot dog at the wide end and roll tightly toward the tip.
Arrange each roll seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with beaten egg and sprinkle generously with everything bagel seasoning.
Bake for 10–14 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown.
Meanwhile, make the dipping sauce by whisking together sour cream, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and whole-grain mustard in a small bowl.
Let the Pigs in a Blanket cool slightly, then serve warm with the dipping sauce.

Notes

Add a slice of cheese under each hot dog for extra flavor.

Use puff pastry instead of crescent rolls for a flakier texture.

To make ahead, assemble and refrigerate until ready to bake.

Reheat leftovers in the oven at 350°F for 5–7 minutes to restore crispness.

Freeze unbaked rolls and thaw in the fridge before baking as usual.
