How To Make This Pull Apart Pigs in a Blanket Recipe

STEP ONE: On a lightly floured surface, remove the pizza crust from the tube and unroll it onto the floured surface. Square it up. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut strips 1 inch by 2 inches. To keep your strips even, you can use the edge of a plastic cutting mat.

STEP TWO: In a small bowl, melt the butter and add the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and red pepper flakes.

STEP THREE: Brush the pizza dough with the butter mixture (there will be some leftover for later).

STEP FOUR: Wrap each cocktail wiener in a small strip of dough and pinch the seam together.

STEP FIVE: Grease the inside of an 8-inch springform pan or other round cake pan with cooking spray — you don’t want these little guys to stick after baking! Place the individual pigs in a blanket standing up in the springform pan, not packed too tightly. You can tip the pan at an angle while stacking them in so that they don’t tip over like dominoes while you’re working.

STEP SIX: Brush the remaining butter mixture over the top of the filled pan. Bake covered loosely with foil for 30 minutes at 375°F. Then bake for about 15 minutes uncovered to allow them to brown without burning. Let cool for 10 minutes before removing them from the pan.

How To Serve

Stack the pigs in a blanket on a serving plate with your favorite dipping sauces. We like ours with ranch, marinara sauce, ketchup, or mustard. You can use classic yellow mustard, go with spicy brown mustard, or honey mustard, based on preferences.

Pull apart pigs in a blanket also pair wonderfully with our cheese dip, Rotel dip, or beer cheese dip.

Storage

IN THE FRIDGE: Store your baked and cooled pigs in a blanket in an airtight container in the refrigerator, and they will stay good for up to 3 days. If you’d like to enjoy them for any length of time beyond this, you should consider freezing them.

IN THE FREEZER: Leftover pigs in a blanket freeze beautifully, and all you need to do to freeze them is allow them to cool to room temperature, then transfer them to an airtight, freezer-safe container or a freezer-safe gallon-sized Ziploc bag.

REHEATING: To reheat frozen mini pigs in a blanket in the oven, place them on a baking sheet in a 350°F preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes.

Are you looking for a hearty, easy appetizer idea to serve at your next party or game day celebration? Look no further! These pull-apart pigs in a blanket are a fantastic option.

Notes

• The Pillsbury brand of dough is bigger than generic or grocery store brands, so take that into account if you purchase another brand to prepare this recipe. 
• Place the springform pan on a baking sheet. This is sooo important so that you don’t end up with a mess in your oven from the melted butter and seasonings dripping!
