These gluten-free pigs in a blanket take me right back to childhood parties, with just a few tweaks to fit how I eat today. They’ve got that same flaky, golden pastry and savory little sausage inside, only now they’re made with gluten-free puff pastry.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water until the egg is well blended.
Roll the puff pastry to a 9x12 sheet. Cut into 36 pieces, by cutting 4 even sections along the long side of the pastry and 9 – 1” sections along the short side of the pastry. They don’t have to be perfect.
Take one strip and roll it around a smokie. Pinch the pastry to seal. Place the wrapped smokie on the prepared baking sheet seam side down. If the pastry isn’t sticking together, you can brush a dab of water or egg wash at the end of the roll, then pinch it together to help it seal.
Brush the tops with the egg wash and sprinkle everything bagel seasoning on top.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm.
Notes
A 14-ounce package of Lit’l Smokies may include a few more than you need for 36 pieces, so you might have a couple left over.
Sweet Loren’s gluten-free puff pastry was my favorite. It was easy to handle, baked up flaky, and had a nice rise.
