Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can refrigerated pizza crust
  • 24 mini smoked sausages
  • 5 cups water
  • 1/4 cup baking soda
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • Coarse sea salt, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
  2. Step 2: Roll out the pizza dough on a cutting board to a ¼-inch thickness using a rolling pin. Slice the dough in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 12 strips to make 24 pieces.
  3. Step 3: Wrap each mini sausage with a strip of dough, leaving the ends of the sausage slightly exposed. Gently press the dough to seal it in place.
  4. Step 4: In a medium saucepan, bring 5 cups of water to a gentle boil over medium heat. Stir in the baking soda until fully dissolved.
  5. Step 5: Working in small batches of 3–4, carefully drop the dough-wrapped sausages into the boiling water. Let them boil for 20–30 seconds, then remove them with a slotted spoon and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Step 6: Brush each pretzel-wrapped sausage with the beaten egg and sprinkle generously with coarse sea salt.
  7. Step 7: Bake in the oven for 15–18 minutes or until the pretzel dough is golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Step 8: Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces. Popular options include mustard, cheese sauce, ranch dressing, or even a honey mustard blend for a touch of sweetness.
