]]> For many people, the hot dogs are perfect as they are. It doesn’t get better than a sausage snuggled inside of a bun and topped with your favorite condiments. But what if we told you that hot dogs can get even better if you swap a regular hot dog bun with a croissant?

While it may sound controversial, using a croissant as a hot dog bun is a game changer. Juicy grilled or boiled sausage paired with crispy, buttery, and flaky pastry will surprise your taste buds and leave them asking for more.

Wondering how to try this unusual but delicious pairing? Here are two simple methods.

Store-Bought Croissant

If you want to try out this variation without putting too much effort into it, get a store-bought croissant. Simply slice it open like you would slice a hot dog bun and place a grilled or boiled sausage inside. Top with mustard, ketchup, relish, onions, or other condiments of your choosing, and dig in. You can make it even tastier by warming up the croissant before assembling the hot dog.

Croissant Dough

For a homemade version of croissant hot dog, you can use croissant dough. Simply wrap it up around the sausage and bake according to packaging instructions. This will result in a more decadent version of pigs in a blanket and offers you more opportunity to experiment with additions like cheese.

  • 1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup

  • 8 hot dog buns
  • ketchup
  • mustard

Instructions:

  2. Preheat your oven to 425°F. Roast the carrots for 30 minutes in a foil-covered baking dish. Then, remove the foil and bake the carrots for another 20 minutes. Once the carrots are tender enough to stick a fork through, they are ready.

]]> People like to eat the weirdest food combinations, but the most popular ones are never too weird. While some swear by salting their watermelon or putting honey on pizza, others have discovered a great new condiment for hot dogs. It’s something you’ve been eating your whole life but probably never on a hot dog—peanut butter.

Peanut butter is incredibly versatile. You can use it in sweet or savory sandwiches, sauces, desserts, and many other places. It is a burger topping in some restaurants, as it’s creamy enough to be spread over the burger and the flavors go great together. The latest hit is using peanut butter as a hot dog topping, and once you try it, it will be clear why.

If you want to give it a chance, make sure to put peanut butter on the hot dog while it’s still warm. It will melt into a delicious sauce and give it another layer of flavor, plus the nostalgic note for all of you who lived on PB+J sandwiches as kids.

Not everyone is in love with this trend, though. After all, we don’t all enjoy the same foods. But if you’re ever out of mustard to put in your hot dog, you know what to do.
