Description
These adorable sausage mummies are hands down one of my family’s favorite Halloween appetizers, and trust me, they disappear faster than a ghost in daylight! Super simple preparation with kid-friendly wrapping fun, ready in just 25 minutes from start to finish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Jus-Rol puff pastry sheet
- 6 sausages (O’Flynns or any quality sausage)
- 1 egg
- Halloween eye cake decorations
- Honey
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180C (350F).
- Slice the Jus-Rol pastry using a pizza cutter lengthways so you have good long strips about 1/2 inch wide to wrap around each sausage.
- Starting from the bottom, wrap the dough around each sausage, leaving a small gap at the top where you’ll place the eyes later. Repeat this process for all six sausages.
- Cover each sausage mummy with egg wash using a pastry brush.
- Place the wrapped sausages on parchment paper on a baking tray and pop them into the oven for 20 minutes.
- For the last five minutes, crank up the temperature to 220C (425F) to create that perfect crispy exterior.
- Once they’ve cooled slightly from the oven, use a tiny dab of honey to stick down the Halloween eyes.
Notes
Don’t wrap the pastry too tightly as sausages will expand during cooking. Leave little gaps here and there for an authentic mummy look. The egg wash makes all the difference for that gorgeous golden color. Let them cool for at least 5 minutes before adding the eyes.
