Meatball Mummies
Delicious meatball mummies, a spooky Halloween appetizer or fun dinner for the kids. Perfectly seasoned ground meat wrapped in strips of crescent dough, baked to golden perfection.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef lean
- ¼ cup breadcrumbs
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese
- 1 egg
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon onion minced dried
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 8 ounce crescent roll dough
- Candy eyes
- marinara sauce for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a mixing bowl combine your ground beef, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, egg, italian seasoning, minced dried onion and garlic powder.
- Once fully combined separate the meat into 8 equal portions.
- Roll the portions into a log shape.
- You can either bake or pan fry the meat. They will cook a bit later too so they do not need to be cooked all the way through. I cook them on the stove in a medium skillet over medium heat for about 10 minutes, flipping once or twice. But you can just pop them in the preheated oven for about 12 minutes.
- Set the cooked meat on a paper towel lined plate to cool slightly.
- Meanwhile slice your crescent rolls into long strips.
- Start wrapping your meatball mummys with the dough strips leaving out a little space for the eyes.
- Place on a parchment lined baking.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until the dough is golden.
- Remove from the oven.
- Using marinara sauce stick the eye onto the face while they are still warm.
- Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
