A fun and delicious twist on classic hot dogs, stuffed with a savory bean mixture and topped with melted cheese.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray.
This makes cleanup easier and prevents sticking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the baked beans, mustard, and brown sugar until well mixed.
Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness or tanginess as desired.
Slice each hot dog lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through.
Creating a pocket in the hot dogs helps hold the filling.
Place the hot dogs on the prepared baking sheet and spoon the bean mixture into the sliced openings.
Press the filling gently to ensure it stays in place.
Bake the hot dogs in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Check halfway through to ensure the filling is not spilling over.
Remove the hot dogs from the oven and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each.
For a creamier texture, use shredded cheese instead of slices.
Return the hot dogs to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
Keep an eye on the cheese to prevent over-browning.
Serve the hot dogs warm and enjoy!
