How to Make Sausage Mummies (Step-by-Step)

1. Prep Your Oven

• Preheat to 180°C (or 350°F)
• Line a baking tray with parchment paper

2. Cut the Pastry

• Unroll your puff pastry sheet
• Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut six 1cm-wide strips from the short edge

3. Wrap the Mummies

• Wrap one pastry strip around each sausage in a messy spiral, like a mummy bandage
• Leave a little gap for the “face” to place the eyes later
• Trim off any extra pastry if needed

4. Bake

• Place the wrapped sausages on the prepared tray
• Bake for 20 minutes, then turn the oven to 220°C (425°F) and bake another 5 minutes to get the pastry flaky and golden

5. Add the Eyes

• Let the mummies cool for 5–10 minutes
• Dab a tiny bit of honey where the eyes go, then gently press on your edible eyes
• Serve warm and spooky!

Fun Variations

• 🎃 Use orange-tinted pastry for pumpkin-style mummies
• 🧀 Add a sliver of cheese inside each wrap for gooey goodness
• 🌱 Use veggie sausages or even zucchini slices for a vegetarian version
• 🧂 Sprinkle the pastry with garlic salt or herbs before baking

Storage & Make-Ahead Tips

• Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days
• Reheat in a toaster oven or oven at 350°F for 5–7 minutes
• Best eaten warm, fresh from the oven!
