Meatball Mummies first made an appearance in my Halloween kitchen 3 years ago and they haven’t left since. They are pretty grotesque looking (as Halloween treats should be, right?) yet they taste delicious! The kids love them and they are super easy to make.
I use frozen meatballs, puff pastry dough, tinned sliced olives and marinara sauce for this recipe. I simply wrap each meatball with strops of dough. I stick olive slices to each ball using marinara sauce. These become the mummy’s eyes. Then I bake them in the oven and serve them warm with marinara sauce!
To make Meatball Mummies, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the dough sheet on a lightly floured work surface.
Cut the dough sheet into thin strips (about ¼ inch), lengthwise.
Take one of the meatballs and wrap with a dough strip. Place it on the baking sheet. Repeat using all the meatballs and dough.
Using marinara sauce, stick two olive slices to each ball to make the mummy eyes. Repeat until each meatball has eyes
Place the baking sheet in the oven for 15-20 minutes until the dough has browned and the meatballs are cooked through.
Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping!
Meatball Mummies will make a great addition to your Halloween cooking. They look gross but they taste delicious! Please remember to tag #CookMeRecipes if you make these scary mummies!
