A delightful twist on the classic hot dog, baked to perfection with gooey cheese and flavorful toppings.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the perfect texture.
Slice each hot dog lengthwise about halfway through.
Be careful not to cut all the way through to keep the hot dog intact.
Place the hot dogs on a baking sheet.
Line the baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Bake the hot dogs in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
Check the hot dogs halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Remove the hot dogs from the oven and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese into the sliced openings.
Use a spoon to evenly distribute the cheese.
Return the hot dogs to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
For a golden finish, broil for 1-2 minutes after baking.
Place each hot dog into a soft bun and top with diced onions and mustard.
Warm the buns slightly in the oven for a softer texture.
Serve immediately and enjoy your cheesy baked hot dogs!
Pair with your favorite sides like fries or a salad for a complete meal.
