Tips:

* For a sweeter glaze, add more maple syrup to taste.
* For a spicier glaze, add more Dijon mustard to taste.
* You can also add other spices to the glaze, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or cayenne pepper.
* If you don't have crescent roll dough, you can use puff pastry dough instead.
* Mini maple mustard pigs in blankets can be made ahead of time and reheated when you're ready to serve.

Variations:

* Instead of mini hot dogs, you can use regular hot dogs, cut into smaller pieces.
* You can also use different types of dough, such as pizza dough or bread dough.
* For a vegetarian version, you can use vegetarian hot dogs or tofu dogs.
* You can also add other fillings to the pigs in blankets, such as cheese, bacon, or vegetables.
