While it took 70 days to prepare an ancient Egyptian Mummy, you will only need a few minutes for each of these delicious treats! Remember, eating a good meal before heading out to parties and trick-or-treating will discourage children (and grown-ups!) from filling up on Halloween candy.
So, get your ingredients prepped and enjoy making these spooky kid's kitchen creations.
Total Time:
1 hour (depending on how many mummies you will need to feed the family - add 3 more minutes for each mummy treat to be completed)
Prep:
30 min
Cook:
30 min
Level:
Easy
Ingredients:
- Crescent Roll Dough
- Hot Dogs
- Pizza Sauce
- Bread (I used fresh baked Italian bread from the grocery store!)
- Black Olives (halves or slices)
- Mozzarella or Provolone Cheese Slices
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Line baking sheets with non stick foil.
- Unroll the dough and slice into thin strips on a cutting board.
- Wrap the hot dogs loosely with the strips of dough - the key is to making them look like mummy wrappings, leaving space for eyes to “pop” out.
- Place Mummy Dogs into the oven first, as they take a little longer than the pizzas, bake until the dough is browned and crisp to your liking (approx. 12-15 minutes).
- While the Mummy Dogs bake, also slightly toast 8 slices of bread.
- Slice the cheese into thin strips, making them look like gauze, mummy wrappings. (Cut different size strips to make wrappings more realistic).
- Take the toasted bread out of the oven and spread pizza sauce on top.
- Add two black olives for eyes and begin to “wrap” your mummy toast with the cheese strips.
- Bake in the oven until cheese becomes slightly melted, but the mummy wrappings still remain defined (approx. 5-7 minutes).
Now, eat and enjoy your mummy inspired dinner before you hit the streets for Halloween fun!

Fun Tips:
- Allow the kids to wrap the Mummy Dog’s and decorate them with ketchup and mustard!
- For decoration purposes only, I used plastic googly eyes. These are NOT the edible kind but you can use the candy ones or get creative and use a dollop of ranch dressing and a black olive to make some!
- Eat the Mummy Bread Pizzas while they are still warm, once they sit out too long the cheese and bread hardens!
