How to keep

Cooked mummy pigs in a blanket can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

How to reheat

We use the oven or air fryer to reheat them so that the crescent roll dough gets nice and fluffy and crisp. Reheating them in the microwave can cause them to be soggy.
