Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces hot dogs
- 3 cups baked beans
- 1 medium, diced onion
- 0.333 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 cup panko breadcrumbs
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the hot dogs into bite-sized pieces and set them aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the sliced hot dogs to the skillet and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they start to brown slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the baked beans, ketchup, mustard, brown sugar, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to mix all ingredients.
Add the cooked onion and hot dog mixture to the bowl with the beans and stir to combine.
Transfer the mixture to a greased 9x9-inch baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
In a small bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with 1 tablespoon of melted butter. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the cheese layer.
Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbly.
Allow the casserole to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
