Steps

Assemble dough by whisking together the flour , yeast , sugar and salt.

With a spatula , stir in the yogurt.

Mix until dough mostly forms together , then knead in the bowl for about 20 times.

Spray a small , clean bowl with nonstick cooking spray and place dough ball in bowl.

Cover with plastic and let rise in a non-drafty place for about an hour.

Dough wont rise that much , but it will develop great flavor and youll see puffiness in the oven as they bake.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

If using an air fryer , preheat to 375.

Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

With a sharp knife , cut down the middle of each hot dog from end to end , being careful not to cut all the way through.

Using your fingers , insert cheese into each hot dog , dividing the cheese equally.

Set aside while preparing dough.

Remove dough from bowl and divide into four equal pieces.

Cut each of the four pieces in half for a total of eight dough balls.

Lightly dust the workspace.
