Toad In The Hole

Serves 3

Syns per serving : 3.5 Syns

Ingredients
6 x low-Syn sausages (I used Marks & Spencers Skinny sausages at 0.5 Syns each - adjust the Syns accordingly depending on which sausages you use)
30gm plain flour (5.5 Syns)
2 eggs
75ml semi skimmed milk (2 Syns)
Pinch of salt

Method
1. Preheat oven to gas mark 7 and preheat an ovenproof dish in the oven.

2. Cook the sausages for 10 minutes until slightly browned and not quite cooked.

3. While the sausages are cooking, make the batter by whisking the eggs, flour, milk and salt in a bowl until there are no lumps.

4. Remove the dish from the oven, spray with Frylight and add the sausages. Pour the batter mix into the dish with the sausages. Place in the oven and cook for 25-30 minutes until golden brown, risen and crispy.
