Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp. sugar
  • 2 tsp. SAF instant yeast
  • 1 ¼ tsp. salt
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 1 cup hot water
  • 3 cups flour more or less (I used half whole wheat flour)
  • 12 hot dogs

Instructions
 

  • Combine sugar, yeast, salt, olive oil, milk, and water in a large mixing bowl. (I used my Bosch.) Add about two cups of the flour and beat till smooth. Slowly add enough flour to make a soft dough.
  • Knead on low speed until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Let dough rest for about 5 minutes.
  • Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope and wrap around a hot dog. Place on a greased cookie sheet. Let rise for 20- 30 minutes.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 350° until lightly browned, about 15-18 minutes.
