Breakfast Pigs in a Blanket
Breakfast Pigs in a Blanket are breakfast sausages wrapped in soft cinnamon roll dough, baked until golden, and finished with a drizzle of sweet icing for the perfect sweet-and-savory bite!
Servings: 8 pigs in a blanket
Ingredients
- 2 (8 ct) tubes Pillsbury cinnamon rolls with the icing
- 16 fully cooked sausage links
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Optionally add the fully cooked sausages into a skillet over medium heat and cook until they are browned to your liking, then set aside to cool slightly.
- Separate the cinnamon rolls and reserve the icing, then flatten each roll with your fingers into a 3 1/2- to 4-inch-long oval.
- Place a piece of sausage in the center of each cinnamon roll and wrap the dough around. Pinch closed with your fingers and place them seam side down on your prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 15 minutes or until the dough is cooked through and golden brown on top.
- Let them cool for a few minutes, then drizzle with the cinnamon roll icing (just heat it for a few seconds in the microwave to reach a pourable consistency) and serve with the maple syrup on the side for dipping.
