Make the Bandages
Remove the dough from the package. Pull apart into triangles along the perforations. Slice the dough into 1/4-inch strips. These strips will become the mummy bandages.
Wrapping the Mummies
Take each hot dog in turn and wrap it with a dough strip. Leave a small space near the top for the face. Keep winding the dough until the hot dog resembles a mummy. Don’t worry about being too precise—irregular wrapping adds charm!
Air Fry the Mummy Dogs
Arrange the Mummy dogs in the basket of the air fryer so they don’t touch; this allows for even cooking. Cook at 350°F 175°C) for 5-7 minutes or until the crescent rolls are fully cooked. Keep an eye on them to prevent overcooking.
Add the Eyes
