Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz refrigerated crescent dough
  • 8 hot dogs
  • mustard for eyes
  • ketchup or hot sauce for eyes
  • oil spray
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

  1. Unroll the crescent dough and cut into 3/8"-1/2" wide strips.
  2. Pat the hot dogs dry. Wrap dough strips around each hot dog like mummy bandages, criss-crossing and leaving a gap for the face. Don't wrap too many layers.
  3. Lightly spray the wrapped hot dogs and air fryer basket with oil spray. Place mummies face-up in the basket, ensuring they don't touch. Cook in batches if necessary.
  4. Air fry at 330°F (166°C) for 6 minutes. Gently wiggle to loosen. Continue air frying for another 1-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Use mustard and ketchup (or hot sauce) to create eyes on the exposed dough face. Get creative with your mummy faces!
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy your spooky, crispy mummy dogs!

Notes

- For extra crispy bandages, ensure hot dogs are patted very dry before wrapping.
- If dough strips are too short, overlap them slightly to create continuous bandages.
- Use small dots of mustard or ketchup for eyes; larger blobs can prevent dough from cooking evenly.
- Store leftover uncooked mummy dogs wrapped tightly in plastic wrap in the fridge for up to 1 day, then air fry as directed.
