Halloween is finally on a Saturday! While Trick or Treating and large parties won’t (and shouldn’t) be happening in the middle of a pandemic, that won’t stop me from celebrating! I recommend sleeping in then making some of these mummy sausages to go with your batch of pumpkin spice cinnamon rolls, and settling in for a Halloween-themed movie (Hocus Pocus, anyone?). These little mummies are super quick and easy to make and equal parts festive and delicious.
"Mummy" Breakfast Sausages
Author: Tara Theoharis
Ingredients
- 1 puff pastry sheet
- flour
- 1 egg
- 1 package of breakfast sausages (10-14 to a pack)
- Ketchup or mustard
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a floured surface until it's about half its original thickness.
- Using a pizza cutter or a knife, cut the pastry sheet into ¼ inch strips.
- Beat the egg with a tsp of water to make an egg wash.
- Dip each pastry sheet in the egg wash, and then wrap them around the breakfast sausages to look like a mummy's wrappings. Leave a small space near one end of the sausage for the "eyes".
- Place the wrapped sausage "mummies" on a lined baking sheet, and brush the rest of the egg wash over the tops.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the pastry is golden and the sausage is cooked through.
- Using a toothpick, dab drops of ketchup or mustard onto the mummies to make eyes, and serve.
