Think of France and you probably think of Eiffel Tower berets and croissants. Think of croissants and you probably never think of hot dogs. But that’s exactly what you should be filling these famously flaky pastries with if you know what’s good for you.

Crescent Dogs I Pillsbury Recipe
Croissants certainly don’t need a helping hand in the popularity stakes (according to Statista more than 145 million Americans will indulge in one of these buttery treats by 2024) and neither do hot dogs (the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council estimates the average American eats 70 of the sausages each year) — in other words we love both foods just the way they are. That said bringing these two culinary heavyweights together can only make them more delicious right?
Right. Because while the pairing of hot dogs and croissants may seem a little odd — especially to us Americans who are used to sweet rather than savory croissants — it’s actually a match made in foodie heaven. Remember croissants themselves aren’t sweet; it’s the fillings and toppings that make them so so using them as a hot dog holder actually makes sense. In fact they’re often eaten savory in France (croissant jambon fromage for example is a croissant filled with ham cheese and sometimes béchamel sauce). What’s more croissants offer a wonderfully rich flavor thanks to their many buttery layers and a nice flaky texture especially when reheated in the oven — both welcome additions to your next hot dog.
if you try one new thing in your life… make it croissant dogs. 🥐🌭 #kroger #croissant #hotdog #hotdogbun #croissanthotdog #foodies #summergrilling #grillingtiktok #foodtok @Delaney & Shelby
