toad-in-the-hole

I am extremely excited about this, so much so, that I'm blogging it before it's even in the oven, let alone a success.....thanks to http://prettyinprimal.blogspot.com/ for the yorkshire recipe...I have adapted it slightly from Erin's original, but such a good inspiration to get me started.

Ingredients:
5 sausages
1/2 onion (sliced)
5 eggs
1/2 cup of cream (I haven't tried substituting milk, or a mix of milk and water, but will experiment and keep you posted)
1/3 melted butter
1/3 almond flour
1/2 tsp salt

1. Preheat oven to 200c.
2. Place sausages and sliced onion into the bottom of a pyrex dish and cook until sausages change colour.
3. Meanwhile beat all the ingredients in the batter mix together. I was bought up as a child with the notion that batter mix is best prepared hours before and left to stand.  I alas had no time for this today - tummy was calling. But I will do some experiments and see if it makes any difference with a paleo recipe.
4. Once the sausages are cooked, pour the batter into the dish and allow to cook until the knife comes out clean. Mine took approximately 45mins - but I did keep a close eye on it towards the end.

Wow!! I am so pleased with how this has turned out! It puffed up beautifully and the batter was delightful!
