Hotdogs do not always have to serve in a bun. Hotdog with Scallion Pancakes would work just fine, and it is easy and fun to make. It looks similar to a puff pastry, except with a nice chew from the scallion pancakes. You can also be creative in the toppings, such as adding mozzarella cheese, green onions, corn, ketchup, or mustard, etc. It will take you less than 5 minutes to prepare and 15 minutes to bake in the oven, which can be a quick and delicious breakfast or snack.
