This pigs in a pretzel blanket recipe by Tasty Recipes on YouTube is a unique recipe that requires only 5 ingredients. It makes a great snack or a party appetizer. They make amazing finger food snacks for children, and they are inexpensive to make. Plus, the color of the pretzel breading has a nice golden brown color that looks delicious. This may wow your guests or family members because they’re easy to eat. I would be tempted to eat a bunch of these since they are small and bite-sized. Also, they make a great switch up instead of making regular pigs in a blanket. I’m sure you can make this recipe with canned crescent rolls, but the boiled baking soda puffs out the pizza dough to create a pretzel-like breading. The steps for this recipe is easy to follow and quick to make.
Ingredients:
- 1 Package Cocktail Franks or mini hot dogs
- 1 Ball Pizza Dough
- 5 Cups Water
- 1/4 Cup Baking Soda
- 1 Egg – beaten
- Sea Salt
Directions:
First, cut the pizza dough into strips and stretch plus roll out. Roll up the mini hot dogs in the pizza dough so that the dough wraps around twice, leaving the ends sticking out and cutting off any excess. Continue to watch Tasty Recipes tutorial on YouTube for full instructions and details.

Next, once the pigs and the blanket are boiled in the baking soda mixture, brush each with egg wash and sprinkle with sea salt. Bake in a preheated oven at 425F for 15-20 minutes.
Serve these with a cheese dipping sauce or ketchup. I love pigs in a blanket, but I’ve never had it in a pretzel breading. The pretzel blanket is a perfect idea because I love how salty the pretzel can be and it pairs amazingly with a cheese sauce.
