Bleeding Apple Mummy Pastries are a cute and gruesome bake perfect to make this Halloween. A cute of pastry and apple filling with berries to make it look the mummy! This is a fun bake to make with children who want a sweet treat for Halloween. It’s a lovely Halloween dessert and quick to make.
It’s nearly Halloween and that calls for special bakes!
The mummies have come for dinner!
It’s a perfect pudding or snack for Halloween and is very easy to make too. These little mummified monsters were a lot of fun to make with children and each one turns out to be so individual. I used edible eyes I bought on ebay. They were simply printed onto rice paper which I cut out and stuck on. Using a mix of apples and frozen fruit gave them a nice taste but also a bleeding bloody quality perfect for Halloween.
These are so cute as every time you make it you will get completely different results. The pastry moves and expands in different ways. I did the mummies exactly the same and with the eyes they look completely different. I love how they get a character as soon as you add the eyes. The one on the left looks so happy while the mummy on the right looks very sacred for Halloween. It was almost too hard to eat them but we did and they were delicious.
How to make the Mummys.
To make this even quicker I used ready made puff pastry. I laid the soften apples on top in the centre third and then popped the frozen fruit on top. I then folded over each of the scored sides over to wrap them up. It’s very easy and everyone loved the finished bake. Great for making with children and perfect for a Halloween party.
So simple but it produces a gloriously grisly result.

- 2 red skin apples
- 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
- 250 g frozen fruit

Oh these are brilliant – I am sure they are lovely and tasty too – I do love apples and puff pastry. Maybe with a thick dollop of cream too mmmmmm
