Description

A fun and irresistible appetizer, these Pretzel-Wrapped Mini Sausages are the perfect combination of savory sausage and soft, salty pretzel dough. Simple to make and perfect for parties, game day, or snacking, these bite-sized treats will disappear in no time!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 12 mini sausages (such as cocktail sausages or little smokies)
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tbsp coarse sea salt
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (optional, for brushing)
  • Mustard
  • Ketchup
  • Cheese sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles.
  3. Cut each crescent roll triangle into smaller strips (about 1-inch wide) to wrap around the mini sausages.
  4. Wrap each mini sausage tightly with a strip of crescent dough, pinching the ends to seal.
  5. Place the wrapped sausages on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small space between each.
  6. Brush each pretzel-wrapped sausage with the beaten egg, and sprinkle lightly with coarse sea salt.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and the sausages are heated through.
  8. Optional: For an extra touch, lightly brush the pretzels with olive oil after baking for a glossy finish.
  9. Serve warm with mustard, ketchup, or cheese sauce for dipping.

Notes

  • You can use store-bought dough or make your own pretzel dough for a more authentic taste.
  • For a twist, try using different types of sausages, like spicy or smoked sausage links.
  • These can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven for a quick snack or appetizer.
