How to Make Mummy Loaf

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Unroll one can (8 oz) of refrigerated crescent roll dough. Place the triangles in an overlapping pattern to form a rectangle (as shown in picture).
  3. Lightly roll over the dough with a rolling pin to seal the seams and create a cohesive base.
  4. Arrange pepperoni slices lengthwise down the center of the dough rectangle.
  5. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the pepperoni.
  6. Starting from one short end, loosely roll the dough over the filling to form a log, slightly overlapping the dough as you go. The seam doesn't need to be perfect; a rustic look adds to the mummy effect.
  7. Bring the dough together at the end to form the mummy's head. Gently shape the dough to resemble a mummy's body.
  8. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Let cool slightly before decorating.
  10. Decorate your mummy loaf with sliced red and orange bell peppers (cut into ankh, eyes, lips, and bat shapes), or other Halloween-themed toppings of your choice.
