Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 125 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 300 milliliters Milk
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 6 pieces Plant-based sausages
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil or sunflower oil
- 1 sprig Fresh rosemary (optional, for garnish)
- optional Onion gravy (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F) or 200°C (fan).
In a mixing bowl, whisk the flour and salt together. Create a well in the center and add the eggs.
Whisk the eggs into the flour, gradually incorporating the milk to form a smooth batter. Let the batter rest for 15-20 minutes while preparing the sausages.
Place a 9x12-inch roasting tin (or similar-sized ovenproof dish) in the oven to preheat.
On the stove, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat and lightly brown the plant-based sausages for 2-3 minutes. This helps them develop flavor, but they do not need to be fully cooked at this stage.
Carefully remove the hot roasting tin from the oven and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, ensuring it coats the bottom evenly.
Arrange the browned sausages in the tin, spacing them evenly apart.
Pour the rested batter over the sausages, ensuring the sausages remain partially visible above the batter.
Return the tin to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until the batter is puffed up and golden. Do not open the oven door during cooking to prevent the batter from collapsing.
Once cooked, remove from the oven and garnish with a sprig of rosemary if desired.
Serve immediately with onion gravy or your favorite vegetarian side dishes, like peas or mashed potatoes.
