These Gluten Free Mummy dogs are a super fun Halloween snack \/ meal. The dough comes together quickly & easily - they're fun to make AND eat! <\/p>\n

Ever see those fun Halloween mummy dogs that use crescent rolls to make wrapped mummy dogs? <\/p>\n

It\u2019s a super cute finger food -and an easy dinner - for the Halloween season. <\/p>\n

Unfortunately, crescent roll dough - or puff pastry - tend not to be all that available in a gluten-free version.<\/p>\n

No need to feel left out on Halloween night, though!<\/p>\n

My easy gluten free pastry dough requires very little in the way of prep work, and is the perfect recipe to make these tasty treats!<\/p>\n

The dough keeps well for 3-5 days in the fridge, so it\u2019s handy to have on hand. <\/p>\n

You can whip up a full OR partial batch of these gluten free mummy dogs at any time, for a quick Halloween dinner, or as a fun treat to serve at Halloween parties.<\/p><\/div>\n

Gluten Free Mummy Dogs Ingredients<\/h2>\n

I like to look at the ingredients for this mummy hot dogs recipe in 2 sections: The gluten-free pastry dough, and the assembly.<\/p>\n

Gluten Free Pastry Dough<\/h4>\n

While this dough ingredient list is more extensive than my full-gluten equivalent - Mummy Dogs<\/a> - it\u2019s made of relatively simple ingredients. <\/p>\n

As with all of my gluten-free baking, I use a few of the available gluten-free flours, rather than an \u201call purpose\u201d premix gluten-free flour product.<\/p>\n

I just find it gives you the best taste, texture, and performance when you choose your flours and proportions specific for the recipe, rather than expect a mix to be all things to every recipe.<\/p><\/div>\n

For this dough, you will need:<\/p>\n

Light Buckwheat Flour<\/a>
\nWhite Rice Flour<\/a>
\nSweet Rice Flour<\/a>
\n Corn Starch<\/a>
\n Xanthan Gum<\/a>
\nCream cheese
\nButter
\n1 Large Egg<\/p>\n

I also recommend having a Rolling pin with adjustable thickness guides<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Using one makes it really easy to get an even, specific thickness to your dough when rolling it out.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n
A Note on Recipe Size<\/h5>\n

As a note: This pastry dough recipe makes a LOT - I usually get enough for 24 mummy dogs out of it. <\/p>\n

If you don\u2019t need 24 ridiculous mummy themed hot dogs, I recommend wrapping up half the dough and keeping it in the fridge while you make these.<\/p>\n

When you have a minute, use the remaining half batch of dough to make my Gluten-Free Mummy Jalapeno Poppers<\/a>!<\/div>\n

\n

Assembly Ingredients<\/h4>\n

Only 3 ingredients here:<\/p>\n

Full size wieners
\n1 Large Egg
\nCandy Eyes<\/a> or sliced olives\t<\/p>\n

As far as the wieners go, you can use whatever you like - Classic hot dogs or otherwise. Regular hot dogs are always a favourite, I prefer beef hot dogs, my husband prefers chicken hot dogs and turkey hot dogs.<\/p>\n

Veggie dogs are another great option for your hot dog mummies - just be sure that you use a gluten free brand!<\/p><\/div>\n

How to Make Gluten Free Mummy Dogs<\/h2>\n

For the full recipe, see the recipe card at the end of this post. This is the pictorial walk through.<\/i><\/p>\n

Make the Pastry Dough<\/h4>\n

Measure flours, corn starch, and xanthan gum into the bowl of your food processor, blitz to combine. <\/p>\n

Add cream cheese, butter, and egg, blitz a few times until mixture resembles gravel.<\/p>\n

Stream in cold water as you run the food processor, just long enough to bring it together as a dough.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Remove dough from processor, knead lightly to bring it together as a ball. <\/p>\n

Wrap in plastic wrap, allow to rest for 1 hour.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

\n

Assembly<\/h4>\n

Pre heat oven to 400 F, line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.<\/p>\n

On work surface LIGHTLY dusted with corn starch, roll dough out to a pastry sheet of \u215b\" thickness. (I recommend using a Rolling pin with adjustable thickness guides<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Note: Avoid using any more corn starch then absolutely necessary - it can dry out your dough and make it prone to breaking.<\/p>\n

Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut the dough sheet into thin strips of dough - I aim for about \u00bc inch slices.<\/p>\n

Carefully wrap pieces of dough around a wiener, leaving some small space open for the eyes (after baking). <\/p>\n

Starting at one end of each hot dog, I will usually roll one strip of dough in a diagonal spiral one way, then a second dough strip criss-crossing the first.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Squeeze all over, to join layers of dough to each other.<\/p>\n

Arranged wrapped wieners on prepared baking sheet.<\/p>\n

In a small bowl or cup, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon water until smooth. <\/p>\n

Use a pastry brush to brush this egg wash all over each wrapped wiener.<\/p>\n

Bake for 20-22 minutes. For a more golden brown finish, do a second brushing of egg wash - or a spritz of cooking spray - bake for an additional 2 minutes.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

I like to spoon a Tablespoon or so of mustard into a piping bag, and pipe two little spots to glue the candy eyeballs down.<\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

You can skip the mummy eyes entirely, if you like - though mustard and\/or olive slices work, too!<\/p>\n

Serve hot, with a small bowl of mustard and\/or ketchup as dip.<\/p>\n

Leftovers<\/h4>\n

Leftovers can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for several days if needed. Best reheated in an air fryer or oven.<\/p><\/div>\n
