Are you one to host Halloween parties and make lots of spooky and fun Halloween party foods? If so, you definitely need to add this recipe to your menu! With my kids being older now, I don’t make all the scary treats and foods like I used to when they were younger, but I do love to make a few things to celebrate the day! These meatballs are a tried and true family favorite and a recipe that everyone looks forward to each year.
Why You’ll Love these Mummy Meatballs
Perfect for any occasion– whether you are hosting a party and serving these as a Halloween appetizer, or making these for your family to enjoy as a lunch or dinner option, these are fun and delicious any time of the day!
Quick and easy to prepare– using shortcut crescent rolls and frozen meatballs, these come together in no time. Of course, if you prefer homemade meatballs, I have included that recipe as well.
Packed with flavor– these meatballs make the best savory dish and turn out perfectly tender and delicious each and every time. This recipe is fail proof, so no matter your experience level in the kitchen, these will turn out great every time!
Customizable– make these your own by using your favorite frozen meatball, or making them from scratch! If serving as an appetizer, you can change up the sauces you pair these with from classic ketchup, to BBQ sauce, Southern comeback sauce, or enjoy on their own.
These Zombie Eyes, aka Halloween Meatballs, come together using simple, shortcut ingredients. Below you will find a brief overview of the ingredients needed.
Crescent Rolls– you will need one can of crescents for this recipe. The 8 count is perfect. Any brand works, but I have had the best luck with Pillsbury.
Meatballs– use your favorite pre-cooked, frozen meatballs whether that be from your grocery store, Trader Joes, etc. I have also included a homemade recipe below in case you want to make these from scratch.
Black Olives– optional, but these give the mummy meatballs their “eye”.
These are perfect to enjoy on their own, with your favorite dipping sauce, or added to a scoop of cooked pasta. You can use BBQ sauce, marinara sauce, ketchup, or a cheese sauce to dip them in. No matter how you choose to serve these, they are sure to be a hit!
Storing Mummy Meatballs
These are best enjoyed fresh from the oven. If you do have leftovers, here are some tips to keep them the freshest:
Allow to fully cool and place in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
To reheat, heat in the microwave or air fryer. If microwave, heat in 30 second increments until warm. To air fry, heat to 320 degrees and cook for about 5 minutes, keep an eye on them so they don’t get too brown.
You can freeze, however, once thawed, the crescent dough tends to get a bit soft and doesn’t have the same texture as when freshly cooked.
