Instructions
Creating Mummy Pigs in a Blanket is simple and fun! Here’s how to do it:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Prepare Dough: Roll out the crescent roll dough on a clean surface. If using perforated dough, pinch seams together to create a solid sheet.
3. Cut Strips: Cut the dough into thin strips (about 1/2 inch wide). You can make various lengths depending on the size of your hot dogs.
4. Wrap Hot Dogs: Take one hot dog and begin to wrap it in the dough strips, leaving space for a “face.” Use overlapping strips for a mummy effect.
5. Place on Sheet: Once wrapped, place the mummy-wrapped hot dogs on the prepared baking sheet.
6. Add Egg Wash: Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush it over the dough for a glossy finish.
7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the dough is golden brown.
8. Create Eyes: If desired, remove from the oven and place small pieces of black olives on the mummies for eyes before serving.
9. Cool: Let them cool slightly before serving. This allows the filling to set just a bit, making it easier to handle.
These steps will guide you through the delightful process of making Mummy Pigs in a Blanket!
