Equipment

  • You’ll need a few basic tools and simple ingredients to whip these up in no time. Let’s get started! πŸŽƒ
  • Equipment
  • Baking sheet: To bake the mummies.
  • Parchment paper: Prevents sticking.
  • Rolling pin: For flattening dough.
  • Knife or pizza cutter: To cut dough into strips.
  • Oven: Preheat to 375Β°F for best results.
  • Having these items ready ensures a smooth cooking process.
  • I like to line my baking sheet with parchment paper; it makes cleanup a breeze.
  • Check that your oven is working properly too!

Ingredients
  

  • Puff pastry sheets: 1 package thawed.
  • Cocktail sausages: 1 package.
  • Egg: 1 beaten (for egg wash).
  • Mustard or ketchup: For eyes.
  • Salt and pepper: A pinch for taste.
  • The combination of these ingredients delivers a savory delightful flavor.

I love using cocktail sausages as they fit perfectly in the pastry, and any sauce works for the eyes!

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
  • Roll out the puff pastry and cut into thin strips using a knife.
  • Wrap each sausage with dough strips, leaving gaps for the mummy effect.
  • Brush each wrapped sausage with beaten egg. This gives them a lovely golden color.
  • Place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Once cooled, decorate with mustard or ketchup dots for eyes. πŸŽƒπŸ‘€
  • It’s important to wrap the sausages without completely covering them, so they look like mummies!

Keeping them slightly apart on the baking sheet helps them bake evenly.

    Notes

    Keep an eye on the mummies while baking to prevent over-browning.
    I sometimes use different condiments for the eyes for variety.
    Store any leftovers in an airtight container; they keep well for a few days.
    Don’t forget to experiment with different dips alongside these tasty treats.
    They’re always a hit at parties!πŸŽ‰

    Presentation & Serving

    I love showing off my Mummy Sausage Roll Ups at parties! πŸŽ‰ They always look so fun and festive.

    Arrange Them with Style

    I often place the mummy rolls on a big, round plate.

    It’s great to use a simple white platter so the mummies really stand out.

    You can even use a spooky Halloween-themed plate to keep the festive vibe going. πŸ•ΈοΈ

    Sauces and Dips

    Next, I like to add small bowls of ketchup or mustard around the plate.

    Sometimes, I use a bit of sriracha for a spicy kick. 🌢️

    This adds fun colors and flavors. Everyone loves choosing their favorite dip!

    Garnishing Touches

    To make things look even cooler, I sprinkle some fresh parsley or chives around the plate.

    It adds a nice pop of green that makes the dish look fresh!

    Serving Tips

    • Toothpicks: I make sure to put some toothpicks in a small cup nearby. They make grabbing each mummy easy and mess-free.
    • Napkins: Keep napkins close, as these treats can get a bit saucy with dips. They’re a must-have!
    • Warmth: If you’ve got one, use a warming tray to keep the rolls toasty. πŸ€— Nothing beats warm, flaky pastry!

    Being creative with the presentation really makes my appetizer stand out.

    It’s all about having fun with it! πŸŽƒ

    Storage Tips

    Storing my mummy sausage roll ups the right way keeps them fresh and tasty! πŸ§›β€β™€οΈ

    After baking, let them cool completely on a baking rack. This prevents the rolls from getting soggy. This step is super important!

    Wrap leftovers tightly in aluminum foil or place them in an airtight container.

    They’ll stay fresh for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.

    For longer storage, freeze them! ❄️

    Place the rolls in a single layer on a baking sheet, then freeze for about 1 hour.

    After they’re frozen, transfer them to a freezer bag. They can be stored for up to 1 month.

    When I’m ready to enjoy them again, I like to reheat them in the oven.

    Just preheat to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and bake for 10-15 minutes.

    Frozen rolls may need a few more minutes. 

    Avoid microwaving as it can make them less crispy.

    Enjoying my mummy rolls warm is the best part! 😊

    Tips & Tricks

    🍴 Equipment

    • Parchment paper
    • Baking tray
    • Rolling pin

    🍘 Ingredients

    • Sausages
    • Crescent dough
    • Mustard or ketchup

    πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ Instructions

    • Wrap Carefully: To make them look like mummies, I start by wrapping the dough around the sausages, leaving a little space for the face.
    • For Perfect Bake: Preheat the oven to 375Β°F. Place the tray in the center to ensure even cooking.
    • Add Eyes: I use mustard or ketchup to dot eyes after baking.

    Short spirals are easier to wrap and create a spooky effect! πŸŽƒ

    Keep the dough cool to prevent it from getting too sticky. If it warms up, handling gets tricky. πŸ˜…

    Experiment with different sausages for flavor variety.

    Chicken or vegan sausages work great for dietary needs! 🌿

    Mix a hint of cheese in the dough for extra flavor and gooey fun.

    Just a touch makes a big difference. πŸ§€

    Spread olive oil over each roll-up before baking.

    This adds a golden crisp look and tasty finish. ✨

    Excited to see your spooky creations!

    They’re always a hit at Halloween parties. πŸŽ‰

    Frequently Asked Questions

    I get lots of questions about making the best mummy sausage roll ups!

    Whether you’re trying to make them extra crispy, adapt the recipe for a big party, or explore gluten-free options, I’ve got you covered. πŸŽƒ

    What’s the secret to making the crispiest mummy sausage roll ups?

    To get that crispiness, I use puff pastry instead of regular dough.

    Chilling the pastry before baking helps it puff up nicely. I also make sure the oven is hot enough, around 400Β°F (200Β°C), for that golden brown look. πŸ˜‹

    Can you suggest some spooky dips that would pair perfectly with mummy sausage roll ups for a Halloween bash?

    For a Halloween vibe, I love using bloody ketchup (just ketchup with a bit of hot sauce) and mustard slime (mustard mixed with a little green food coloring).

    They add a fun and spooky touch to the bites!

    How can I adjust the recipe for mummy sausage roll ups to accommodate a large party crowd?

    To feed a crowd, I simply double or triple the ingredients.

    I roll out all the dough at once and make an assembly line. Baking trays work wonders for making sure I have enough oven space. Easy peasy!

    Are there any vegetarian alternatives for making delicious mummy sausage roll ups that everyone will love?

    Definitely! I swap regular sausages for veggie sausages.

    I find that they wrap just as well and can please everyone, even meat lovers. Plus, adding some assorted veggies as filling can be a nice touch. πŸ₯•πŸ₯¦

    What’s a quick way to wrap sausages for the mummy effect without losing the appetizer’s charm?

    I slice the pastry dough into thin strips and wrap them around the sausage in a criss-cross pattern.

    A quick tip: I leave space for eyes! This makes them look more like mummies and less like sausages!

    Is there a gluten-free version of the mummy sausage roll ups that’s just as tasty?

    Yes, there is! I use gluten-free puff pastry available in most stores. It’s just as delicious and flaky.

    Pairing them with gluten-free sausages keeps everyone happy. Plus, they look exactly the same as the regular ones! πŸ˜ƒ
