Pigs in a blanket but make it plant-based. These delectable little piggies are made with Impossible™ Beef Hot Dogs Meat From Plants, store-bought, plant-based crescent dough, and then some very tasty additional components you won't want to skip in this very easy recipe that serves 6 for a fun lunch or dinner, or 8-10 when serving as an appetizer.

We love dunking these salty-sweet plant-based packages of joy in a whole grain honey mustard dipping sauce, but by all means, pick your dipping sauce of choice. But before you get to dunking, a sweet and slightly nutty honey brown butter glaze goes over the freshly baked piggies, really knocking the flavor out of the park in this recipe.

And since pigs in a blanket were always appetizers on our holiday tables, we've included a special wreath version of these tasty treats in the instructions. Makes a great edible centerpiece!

Not a fan of butter and honey? We love to sub the butter in this recipe for high-quality plant-based butter and the honey for agave. Enjoy!

11 Ingredients

1 package Impossible™ Beef Hot Dogs Meat From Plants, 6 ct
8 oz package Crescent Roll Dough, 8 ct
1 Egg or equivalent plant-based liquid egg replacer
2 tsp Poppy Seeds, if desired

Whole Grain Honey Mustard

1/4 cup Dijon Mustard
1/4 cup Whole Grain Mustard
1 cup Mayo or plant-based Mayo
1/4 cup Honey or Agave
Kosher Salt to taste

Honey Brown Butter

2 tbsp Honey or Agave
4 tbsp Unsalted Butter

How to prepare

Step 1: Make the Whole Grain Honey Mustard

Mix together dijon, whole grain mustard, mayo, honey or agave, and salt.

Step 2: Make the Honey Brown Butter

Cook butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring often, until it foams, then browns, 5–8 minutes. Cool slightly, then whisk in honey. Keep warm. If using plant-based butter, melt in a pan and whisk in honey or agave.

Step 3: Assemble the Pigs in a Blanket

Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix 1 egg with 1 tablespoon water to make the egg wash. Cut each Impossible Hot Dog into 4 equal pieces. Open the crescent dough package, and unfold the 8 triangles. Use a sharpe knife or pizza wheel to cut each triangle into 3 equal pieces. Roll each hot dog piece up in one of the dough triangles starting at the wider end of each triangle to make 24 pigs in a blanket. Arrange on a parchment-lined sheet pan about 1 inch apart, or for a festive holiday appetizer, arrange side by side, touching, in a circle to create a wreath. Brush the tops of each pig in a blanket with egg wash and sprinkle with poppy seeds if desired.

Step 4: Bake and Serve

For individual pigs in a blanket, bake for approximately 15 minutes, or for the wreath bake for 18-20 minutes, until the crescents are golden brown. Pour or brush the pigs in a blanket with a generous amount of honey brown butter fresh out of the oven. For a festive winter holiday decoration, garnish the wreath with sprigs of rosemary or fresh pine or cranberries. Serve with the honey whole grain mustard dipping sauce, and enjoy!
