Oven-Style Scotch Eggs

Scotch eggs are such a treat, and you can enjoy them more often when they're not deep-fried. Hard-boiled eggs baked with an outer coating of sausage are just too good to pass up.

ingredients
1 pound bulk sausage (turkey, pork or Italian sausage)
cornmeal
8 hard-boiled eggs
1 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1 egg, beaten
directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Evenly divide the sausage into 2-ounce portions.
Lightly sprinkle cornmeal onto a work surface. On the surface, pat out each sausage portion into a circle about 1/8-inch thick.
Set one hard-boiled egg in the middle of each sausage circle and wrap the edges around, forming a seal around the egg. Press the edges together to seal.
Place the bread crumbs in a shallow dish. Place the beaten egg in another. Roll the sausage-coated eggs in the egg and let any excess drip of. Then, roll them in the crumbs, patting the coating on gently.
Place the Scotch eggs on a baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees F for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve hot.

Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

This was great! I used smoked deer sausage and white cornmeal. I was utterly excited to not have to deep fry anything!

I use Jimmy Dean sausage. Other than that follow the recipe to the letter. They come out great every time.

Very tasty, and I it can be made a day or two in advance. I just rolled Jimmy Dean bulk sausage, rolled in bread crumbs and baked without the extra egg dipping (less mess). Worked fine, and I served with a watered down mustard sauce. Do cut in half before serving for a prettier look.
I was surprised that this was so easy to put together! I used a pastry sheet [tupperware], fine breadcrumbs and the heel of my hand to form the sausage rounds. It was a snap to bring the meat up around the egg and roll it like a meatball. I used a 1 lb. hot italian sausage roll [because we like heat] with 8 hard boiled eggs and the proportions were perfect. Even though I thought it strange to roll first in bread crumbs and then an egg wash, I followed instructions. Perfect!! The only thing I adjusted was the baking temp. I turned it up to 390 degrees gradually because it wasn't browning/crisping the way I remembered. Again, perfect!! So-ooo yummy!! Try it for an appetizer or breakfast.
