Keto Mummy Dogs Directions
-
Heat it up
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

Melt the cheese
Melt shredded mozzarella cheese in a glass bowl using the microwave at 60 second intervals until cheese is melted. If you don't want to use a microwave, melt the mozzarella cheese on the stovetop in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
-
Add to the food processor

-
Work the dough
Divide the dough into 8 equal balls. Roll the ball into a long snake.
-
Wrap the dog
Wrap the dough around a hot dog like a mummy.

Bake it
Bake in a 350 degree oven for 17 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool then add eyes. Can use mustard and ketchup for the eyes or get edible eyes for a fun look.
These adorable keto mummy dogs have to be on your table on Halloween night. They are so fun and easy to make. This is definitely a keto recipe you can get your kids involved with. They will love wrapping the hot dogs with the fathead dough and putting on eyes after the mummy dogs are done baking.
Keto mummy dogs are a bagel dog that is thin wrapped haphazardly in fathead dough to mimic a mummy’s wrap. Add some candy eyes or ketchup & mustard eyes to complete the look.
I like to pack these Halloween keto mummy dogs in my kids’ lunchbox in the days precedding October 31st. They love to get into the Halloween spirit and these low carb bagel dogs sure do put a smile on their face.
To wrap the hot dog like a mummy, I like to pinch off a little ball of dough about the size of a golf ball. Then roll it out into a very long thin snake. Next, I lay down the hot dog and start wrapping. The key to making these mummy dogs look like real mummies is to wrap in different directions and do some overlapping wraps.
This recipe made Halloween so festive and the kids absolutely loved how spooky and cute the mummy dogs looked. The dough had a great texture and flavor that really surprised me. It was a big hit at our party and made staying keto way more fun!
I just finished wrapping them for a Halloween party tonight, and I could not get them to roll into a long thin snake without breaking in half or into 3 pieces. I was so frustrated I will probably not make them again. VERY time consuming, and I make fathead dough ALL the time for pizza and other things.
I’m sorry your dough kept breaking. It sounds like you mozzarella cheese wasn’t melty enough to make an elastic dough. When this happens to me, I put the whole dough ball in the microwave for about 30-45 seconds. Then knead out the dough and roll into snakes. It will be more moldable when it is melty and warm.
Instead of making them look like mummy’s I just wrapped the dogs completely. My husband and 5yr old loved them and my son asked me to make them again soon!
I’m making these tomorrow
