Ingredients

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (180°C) for 5 minutes.
  • Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Slice each triangle into thin strips about ¼ inch wide. Take a hot dog and wrap it with a crescent dough strip, leaving a small gap for the face. Keep wrapping until the hot dog is covered. Repeat for all hot dogs.
    8 ounces can crescent rolls, 8 hot dogs
  • Place the wrapped hot dogs in the air fryer basket, ensuring they’re not touching. Air fry for 5-7 minutes until the crescent rolls are golden brown. Remove from the air fryer and let cool slightly. Add edible eyes to the face gap, using a tiny bit of mustard or ketchup if needed to help them stick. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces.
    16 edible eyeballs

Notes

  • Slice Evenly: Try to cut your crescent dough strips evenly so each mummy has a nice, consistent wrap.
  • Space Them Out: Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket—give each mummy some space to get that perfect crispiness.
  • Keep an Eye on Time: Different air fryers can cook at slightly different rates, so start checking a minute or two early to make sure your mummies don’t overcook.
  • DIY Eyes: If you can’t find edible eyeballs, improvise with small olive slices or a dot of mustard for a spooky alternative.
  • Batch Cooking: If your air fryer is on the smaller side, cook the mummies in batches so they all turn out perfectly crispy.
  • Flavored Dough: Want to mix it up? Try using garlic or herb-flavored crescent rolls for a little extra flavor.
  • Serve Immediately: These mummy dogs are best when served right away, while the crescent rolls are warm and flaky.
