Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup warm water

  • 2 ¼ tsp bread machine yeast
  • 1 large egg
  • cup cold butter - cut into small cubes
  • 3 ¾ cups bread flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ¼ cup softened butter - for spreading after rolling out the dough
  • 10 - 12 hot dogs - any you prefer, or cut larger hot dogs into pieces
Optional egg wash before baking
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp water

Equipment

  • Bread Machine make sure it has a dough cycle!
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Measuring jug

  • knife

  • Baking sheet or large dish
  • Plastic Wrap

Method
 

Make the dough in the bread machine
  1. Add the warm water, warm milk, sugar, and yeast into the insert of your bread machine. Stir gently, cover, and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes until frothy and bubbly.
    If it doesn’t foam, the yeast isn’t active and you'll need to start again with fresh yeast for the best rise.
  2. Add the egg and cold cubed butter directly to the bubbly yeast mixture.
  3. Add the flour all at once, then make a small well in the top and pour in the salt. Lightly cover it with flour so it doesn’t immediately mix with the yeast.
  4. Place the insert back into your bread machine and select the “Dough” cycle. Mine takes about 90 minutes, perfect for tidying up or brewing a tea while the magic happens!
  5. Once the dough cycle finishes, tip the dough out onto a floured surface and roll it into a large rectangle (around 16x12 inches). Spread the softened butter evenly across the top.
  6. Cut the dough into 10 - 12 large triangles. Place one hot dog at the wide end of each triangle, then roll tightly toward the tip to form that classic crescent shape.
  7. Transfer the rolls to a parchment or foil-lined baking sheet, cover loosely with plastic wrap, and let them rise for 1 hour, until puffed and pillowy.
  8. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Brush each roll with the egg wash (if using) and bake for 23 to 25 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked.
  9. Serve warm with ketchup, mustard, or a side salad. Perfect for quick dinners, party trays, or even a cheeky weekend brunch.

Notes

  • You can prepare the dough in advance and refrigerate overnight. Let it rest at room temperature before shaping.
  • Quality hot dogs truly make a difference. Try chicken apple sausage or smoked franks for a twist.
 

Storage

  • Cool leftovers completely before storing.
  • Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerate for up to 4 days.
  • To freeze, wrap each individually and store in a freezer bag for up to 2 months.
  • Reheat in the oven at 325°F for 10 minutes to refresh that soft, bakery texture.
