Toad in the hole egg recipe

Toad in the Hole is a traditional British dish consisting of sausages cooked in Yorkshire pudding batter. Here’s a variation of the classic recipe with eggs:

Ingredients:

• 8 pork sausages
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup milk
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 4 large eggs (for the holes)
• Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Place the sausages in a large ovenproof dish or baking tray, and drizzle with a little oil. Roast in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes until they start to brown. Make sure to turn them occasionally for even browning.
3. While the sausages are cooking, make the Yorkshire pudding batter. In a mixing bowl, sift the flour and a pinch of salt. Make a well in the center and crack in the eggs. Gradually add the milk, whisking continuously until you have a smooth batter. Let the batter rest while the sausages cook.
4. Once the sausages are lightly browned, remove the dish from the oven. Pour the Yorkshire pudding batter over the sausages, making sure they are evenly covered. Return the dish to the oven and bake for about 20 minutes or until the batter is risen and golden.
5. While the toad in the hole is baking, prepare the “holes” for the eggs. Crack one egg into a small bowl or cup, taking care not to break the yolk. Once the toad in the hole has been baking for about 15 minutes and is set enough to hold the eggs, carefully make four wells in the batter and gently pour one egg into each well.
6. Return the dish to the oven and continue baking for another 5-7 minutes or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, or until cooked to your liking.
7. Once cooked, remove the dish from the oven. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper and chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
