Pigs in a Blanket


Paleo?...  eh... well... maybe not, but they are gluten-free Pigs in a Blanket!!  Yes, please!!  These little bites are so very good.  I actually made them for my gals, but it was everything I could do not to eat all of them once I took them out of the oven.  I like to dip mine in mustard - oh yeah!  

Pigs in a Blanket
1 1/2 c. almond flour
2 T. unsalted, pastured butter, cold and diced
1/2 t. sea salt
1 t. honey
1 egg
about 5 hot dogs
-Prepare dough by adding all ingredients to a food processor and pulsing it until it is blended and ready to form a ball of dough.  
-Take ball of dough out of processor and place in a bowl.  Cover and place in the fridge or freezer for 5-10 minutes.  
-Slice each hot dog into 4 pieces.  
-Roll dough out between 2 sheets of parchment paper until you have a flat, round circle about 1/8 inch thick.  Using pizza cutter or knife, sliced flattened dough into pie slices until you have triangular slices that are not wider than your cut hot dog pieces.  
-Place each hot dog piece at the base of the triangle slice of dough (the widest part) and then roll the dough over the hot dog until it is completely rolled around the hot dog piece.  
-Place each piggy on parchment paper on a cookie sheet.  Bake for 10 minutes, or until edges begin to brown.  Serve!
