Create spooky and delicious Mummy Meatball Sliders, a fun and easy dish perfect for Halloween parties or a festive family meal. These adorable sliders feature juicy meatballs wrapped in strips of pastry to look like mummies, with little olive eyes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons mustard
  • 1/4 cup sliced black olives

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, milk, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
  • Roll the meat mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
  • Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Cut each triangle lengthwise into thin strips.
  • Wrap a strip of dough around each meatball to resemble a mummy, leaving a small gap for the “eyes.”
  • Place the wrapped meatballs on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and the dough is golden brown.
  • While the meatballs are baking, mix the ketchup and mustard in a small bowl for the “glue.”
  • Once the mummy meatballs are out of the oven, use the ketchup and mustard mixture to “glue” two olive slices onto each meatball for eyes.
  • Serve warm.

Notes

  • You can use any type of ground meat for the meatballs, such as turkey or a mixture of beef and pork.
  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the meatball mixture.
  • If you don’t have black olives, you can use small pieces of bell pepper for the eyes.
  • These are best served fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave.
