Instructions

Preheat oven to 400℉.

Place the English muffin halves on a baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes.

Remove muffins from oven and spread 1 tablespoon of the pizza sauce onto each English muffin half.

Peel the mozzarella sticks into strings and decoratively arrange them on top of each English muffin. Slice the green olives into 1/4 inch thick rings and place them on top of the cheese to create eyes.

Bake mummies for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Toast Your English Muffins First 🔥
Lightly toast the English muffins before adding sauce and cheese to create a crispy base that prevents sogginess and provides better structural integrity for the toppings.
Dry Your Mozzarella Strings 🧀
Pat the mozzarella cheese sticks dry with paper towels before using them as bandages—this prevents excess moisture and helps them melt more evenly while maintaining their shape.
Use Olive Oil on Your Olives 🫒
Lightly pat the olive pimentos dry and brush with a tiny amount of olive oil before placing them as eyes; this makes them shine and prevents them from rolling during assembly and baking.
Sauce Application Technique 🎨
Spread sauce thinly and evenly in a circular pattern, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent burning and ensure the muffin stays structurally sound during baking.
Strategic Cheese Wrapping ✂️
Wrap cheese strings in a crisscross pattern with intentional gaps to mimic authentic mummy bandages—this creates visual appeal while allowing the sauce underneath to caramelize slightly for better flavor.
