Along with costumes and carved pumpkins, Halloween treats make this holiday unforgettable. Our Nutella and banana mummies are a quick and easy idea, perfect for snacking on during the spookiest night of the year. They're great to make with kids and adults alike. These sweet mummies, made with ready-to-use puff pastry, Nutella, and bananas, are super delicious... With the strips of puff pastry and the banana "eyes", you can creatively craft these adorable mummies. They're perfect for a Halloween buffet alongside these puff pastry pumpkins, our witch's finger treats, or our brain cheesecake. Or, serve them for a Halloween breakfast to share with the whole family.
Discover how easy they are to make at home and also try out these Halloween recipes:
To make the Nutella and banana mummies, first unroll the rectangular puff pastry onto a work surface. Now, cut out 6 rectangles measuring 4x2 inches 1 and with the remaining pastry, cut strips about 0.4 inches in width 2. Using a piping bag, spread the Nutella onto the rectangles, leaving a small border free 3.
Spread the Nutella evenly with a small spatula 4. Then, peel the bananas and slice them thinly 5. Place 3-4 banana slices on the Nutella, leaving a strip at the top free 6.
Brush the edges with a bit of milk 7 and layer more strips on top to form mummies 8. Trim the edges if the strips extend too far out 9.
Leave a space where you can fit two banana slices to simulate the eyes 10. Brush the surface with milk 11 and sprinkle with brown sugar 12.
Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 20 minutes. Once they're nicely golden brown, take them out 13 and let them cool for a few minutes before making the eyes. To do this, just squeeze a dot of Nutella on the bananas 14 and top with a drop of chocolate. Continue this process for all of them, and your little mummies are ready 15!
