Toad in a Hole
Ingredients
3 large eggs
1 cup milk, not skim
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 (12-ounce) package uncooked maple breakfast sausage links
3 tablespoons olive oil
butter, optional, for serving
maple syrup, optional, for serving
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and salt together.
Whisk the flour into the egg mixture until blended.
Let the mixture stand for 30 minutes.
While the mixture stands, cook the sausage links according to the package directions.
Cut each sausage into 3 pieces.
Place the olive oil in a 12-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet.
Place the skillet in the oven until hot, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir the batter and pour it into the prepared, hot skillet.
Top the batter with the sausage pieces.
Bake the skillet until golden brown and puffed, for about 20-25 minutes.
Remove the Toad in a Hole from the skillet, cut it into wedges, and serve with butter and maple syrup.
