Mummy Hand Pies

Spooky and delicious mummy hand pies made with flaky puff pastry, sweet jam filling, and decorated with chocolate chip eyes – perfect for Halloween treats!

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 5 minutes before serving 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (17.3 oz) puff pastry sheets, thawed
  • 1 cup strawberry or raspberry jam, thick consistency preferred
  • 1 egg + 2 tbsp water for egg wash
  • 2 tbsp mini chocolate chips for mummy eyes

Instructions

  • Prep: Preheat oven to 400Β°F, line baking sheet with parchment paper, and roll pastry to ensure even thickness
  • Assembly: Cut pastry into rectangles, add jam filling (about 1 tablespoon per pie), and create bandage strips leaving edges clear
  • Finishing: Apply egg wash thoroughly with pastry brush and gently press chocolate chip eyes into pastry
  • Baking: Bake until golden brown for 15-20 minutes, watching for browning, then cool slightly before serving

Notes

  • Chill assembled pies for 10 minutes before baking for better shape retention and cleaner edges
  • Leave small gaps between bandage strips to show the “mummy skin” underneath for authentic appearance
  • Use thick jam to prevent leakage during baking – strain regular jam if needed
  • Press chocolate chips gently into pastry so they don’t fall off during baking
