Halloween is tomorrow and you've sorted the sweets, but what about something savoury? These five Halloween sandwiches are just the thing for a last minute party platter or a bite before trick or treating! From 10 minute Frankenstein sandwiches to cream cheese ghosts, creepy skulls, severed fingers and egg salad coffins, it's all fun and simple!
1 - Frankenstein Sandwiches
Only have 10 minutes? These little Frankensteins are your friends! Avocado dip makes the green face, roast beef becomes the hair and bocconcini makes the eyes. Add olive neck bolts and a crooked mustard smile and you've got a savoury snack to serve before the lolly haul begins.
2 - Ghost Sandwiches
BOO! These little ghost sandwiches need just bread, cream cheese and black olives. Use a ghost cutter to stamp out the shapes, spread with cream cheese and dot on the eyes.
3 - Skull Sandwiches
Have a skull cutter in your Halloween stash? These sandwiches take around 20 minutes and need just bread, pâté and a little cranberry sauce or berry jam. A straw or apple corer makes the eye holes, with the red sauce peeking through for that slightly gruesome touch. So simple but so effective!
4 - Ransom Finger Sandwiches
Finger sandwiches take on a whole new meaning here! Roll soft bread around an egg salad filling and add almond fingernails for a creepy platter. If egg salad isn't your thing, use your favourite sandwich filling. A rolling pin does the shaping, so there's no special cutter needed for these.
5 - Rotten Egg Coffin Sandwiches
Don't let the name put you off! These coffins are filled with a delicious egg salad with peas, chives, garlic aioli and a little horseradish cream. Allow around 30 minutes, including cooking the eggs. Cut the bread into coffin shapes and finish with RIP in food colouring.
So tell me Dear Reader, are you still putting together your Halloween menu? And which of these spooky sandwiches would you make first?
