Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Place a large oven-safe baking dish into the oven to heat up.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, almond milk, and melted butter until fully combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking until a smooth batter forms. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes.
While the batter rests, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the pork sausages for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned but not fully cooked through.
Carefully remove the hot baking dish from the oven and lightly grease it with olive oil or melted butter. Arrange the partially cooked sausages evenly in the dish.
Pour the batter over the sausages, making sure they are evenly distributed and partially submerged.
Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the batter is golden brown and puffed up.
Remove from the oven, let it cool for 5 minutes, and serve hot with a side salad or low-carb gravy, if desired.
