Ingredients 

1x2x3x

• 1 8 oz. tube crescent roll dough
• 1 14 oz. package smoked sausage (such as kielbasa)
• 1 egg beaten
• 3 tablespoons Everything Bagel Seasoning

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Unroll the 1 8 oz. tube crescent roll dough and separate into 4 rectangles. Press press any seams together.
• Cut the 1 14 oz. package smoked sausage into 4 equal pieces. Tightly wrap each piece of sausage in a rectangle of crescent dough. Press the dough around the ends to fully enclose the sausage.
• Brush each piece of sausage with the 1 egg, beaten, then sprinkle with 3 tablespoons Everything Bagel Seasoning.
• Using a serrated knife, cut each sausage into 4-5 pieces (about 1-inch thick) and place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve with honey mustard for dipping, if desired.

Recipe Tips

• If your crescent roll dough becomes too warm or sticky, pop it in the fridge for 5-10 minutes to firm it up. This makes it easier to handle and ensures clean cuts.
• Pre-made crescent roll dough usually has perforated seams. Be sure to press them together well before wrapping the sausage to avoid gaps or unrolling during baking.
• For the best results, wrap the dough as tightly as possible around the sausage. This keeps everything intact while baking and ensures even cooking. Don’t forget to pinch the ends closed to seal in the flavor!
• Leave a bit of space between each piece on the baking sheet to allow the dough to puff up and bake evenly. If they’re too close, they may stick together.
• These bite-sized snacks are always a hit, so consider doubling the recipe if you’re feeding a crowd–or even if you aren’t! Leftovers reheat well in the oven.

Storing and Making Ahead

• Make ahead: You can assemble these tasty appetizers ahead of time and store them in the fridge for up to 24 hours before baking. You can also freeze unbaked pigs in a blanket. Bake them from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
• Storing leftovers: Cool completely before storing to prevent sogginess. Place them in an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
