Ingredients

  • 1 largeegg
  • 1 teaspoonwater
  • 1package cocktail-sized smoked sausages or little smokies
  • 1can refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • flaky salt or everything bagel seasoning, for sprinkling (optional)

Directions

  1. 1

    Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to 375ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

  2. 2

    Whisk 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl until combined. Pat 1 (12- to 14-ounce) package cocktail-sized smoked sausages or little smokies dry with paper towels.

  3. 3

    Unroll 1 (8-ounce) can refrigerated crescent roll dough on a work surface. Separate the dough along the perforated seams into 8 triangles. Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut each triangle lengthwise into 3 narrow triangles, 24 total.

  4. 4

    Place 1 sausage at the wide end of a dough triangle. Roll towards the pointed end, wrapping the dough around the sausage and allowing the dough to overlap. Place on the baking sheet seam-side down. Repeat with the remaining sausages, spacing them evenly apart on the baking sheet.

  5. 5

    Brush the tops and sides of the dough with a thin layer of the egg wash. Sprinkle with flaky salt or everything bagel seasoning if desired.

  6. 6

    Bake until the dough is puffed and golden brown, 13 to 15 minutes. Serve warm with mustard, ketchup, or your favorite dipping sauce.
