Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 can crescent roll dough preferably Pillsbury for flaky layers
  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce marinara or roasted pepper sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese or provolone for a sharper flavor
  • 10 pieces black olives sliced, for eyes
  • 4 oz cooked sausage or pepperoni optional, for extra flavor
  • 1 egg beaten egg for egg wash

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll the crescent dough and press it into a flat sheet, smoothing out the creases with your hands or a rolling pin.
  • Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. This adds flavor without making the crust soggy.
  • Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to slice the dough into strips about 1 inch wide, creating bandage-like strips for your mummies.
  • Lay the strips on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them for the mummy bodies. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the edges are golden and flaky, filling your kitchen with a toasty aroma.
  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven, and brush the strips with the beaten egg to give them a shiny, golden finish. Let them cool slightly so they’re easy to handle.
  • Sprinkle shredded cheese over the strips, creating a patchwork of 'bandages' that will melt and hold everything together. Use a small spoon or piping bag for precise placement.
  • Press tiny black olive slices gently into the cheese to create adorable eyes, positioning them where the mummies' faces would be. Return the tray to the oven for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
  • Once out of the oven, let the mummies sit for a few minutes to set. Arrange them on a serving platter, adding chopped herbs or chili flakes for extra flair if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature for a fun, spooky snack.
