Ingredients :
- 12 small frankfurters
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon whole milk
- Poppy seeds (to taste)
- 230 g (8.1 oz) puff pastry
How to Make Mummy Sausages Step by Step :
To make your mummy sausages, start with a sheet of ready-made puff pastry (or make your own by following this recipe). Use a pastry wheel to cut the pastry into 12 strips, each about 3/8 inch wide. Wrap each frankfurter with a strip of pastry, spiraling it around like bandages—be sure to leave one end of the sausage uncovered for the mummy’s “face.” Once wrapped, place all the sausages on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, ready for baking.
In a small bowl, beat the egg yolk with a fork, then add the milk and mix well. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat each mummy sausage with the egg wash to give them a golden, crispy finish when baked.
Bake the mummy sausages in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 40 minutes, or until they’re golden and puffed. Once baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. To make the mummy eyes, use a wooden skewer to poke two small holes in the exposed part of each sausage, then place a poppy seed in each hole.
These fun and easy Mummy Sausages are the ultimate Halloween snack—perfect for parties, school lunches, or spooky movie nights. With just a few ingredients and minimal prep, you can create a festive treat that’s both kid-approved and crowd-pleasing. Serve them warm with your favorite dipping sauces and enjoy the spooky fun with family and friends.
Happy Halloween and happy baking! 🎃🧁
