How To Make Healthy Mummy Brownies for Halloween
Not only are these spooky mummy brownies fun for halloween, they make an extra special addition to school lunch boxes during the month of October. For a great afternoon activity, make them together with kids!
The first step is to select your brownie recipe.
I’m sharing all my favorite healthy brownie recipes below. Of course, you can also opt for regular brownies from a brownie mix.
Once your brownies are baked and cooled, the fun part begins!
Turn the brownies into mummies by adding the coconut butter based frosting plus candy eyes.
Healthy brownie recipes
Here are my favorite brownie recipes to use for these fun halloween treats!
Peanut butter swirl brownies – Made with coconut flour and sweetened with honey with the best swirled top. They are gluten free, use coconut oil in place of butter, plus have melted chocolate in the brownie batter.
Black bean brownies – This super healthy, high fiber recipe is vegan and made with black beans. It also happens to be gluten free, dairy free, and made in the blender! This recipe makes really fudgy brownies.
Almond butter brownies – These brownies are made with whole wheat flour, almond butter and coconut sugar. They have a nice almond butter swirl on top and are super chocolaty and make a chewy chocolate brownie.
What you need for halloween brownies

- your favorite brownie recipe
- coconut butter
- pure maple syrup
- unsweetened plain almond milk
- candy eyeballs
How to make this healthy mummy brownie recipe
- Bake your brownie recipe of choice in a square baking pan and allow it to fully cool to room temperature.
- Once cooled, cut into rectangles and place on parchment paper in a single layer.
- In a double boiler, melt the coconut butter.
- Once melted, whisk in the maple syrup and non-dairy milk. You can make your frosting thinner or thicker depending on the amount of milk you use.
- Add the frosting into a piping bag or ziploc bag, snip off the end.
- Drizzle into a mummy wrapping like pattern. Add candy eyes, let the frosting set (it will harden fully once cooled), and ENJOY!

Alternative frosting to try
Here are two more frosting recipes to try in place of the coconut butter option:
- Melted white chocolate with a little avocado oil or coconut oil to thin – this will harden when cooled
- Make a cream cheese frosting (try this healthy cream cheese frosting recipe!) – this will not harden when cooled
How to store leftover mummy brownies
These mummy brownies store really well. Once cooled to room temperature and the frosting has hardened add the remaining brownies into an airtight container and store on the counter or in the fridge.
Since the frosting is dairy free, it can stay out on the counter for a couple of days.
To store for up to 1 week, store in the fridge.
If you need to stack the brownie mummies on top of each other, place a piece of parchment paper or wax paper between each of the brownies.
Substitutions
Below you’ll find a list of substitutions that will work well in this fun halloween treat recipe.
If you try something different out, please leave a comment below letting us all know how it turned out!
Coconut butter – Cacao butter is a great replacement for coconut butter. Both have a high fat content and will give you the same results. Coconut butter will give you a slight coconut flavor, whereas cacao butter is what I use to make homemade chocolate and does not give you a coconut flavor.
Maple syrup – Any liquid sweetener will work in place of maple syrup – try honey, agave nectar or date syrup.
Almond milk – Go with your favorite non-dairy milk in place of almond milk. Cashew, coconut, hemp, oat, or macadamia nut milk are all great options to use here.
