Things You'll Need:
- 1 cup flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup milk
- ½ cup cold water
- British-style sausages or other meaty sausages
- Whisk
- Mixing bowl
- Roasting pan
-
Step 1
Put the flour into a large mixing bowl and add the salt. Make a well at the bottom of the flour, crack the two eggs into the bottom and whisk a little to break the yolks up.
-
Step 2
Add the milk and cold water and whisk until all the flour is incorporated into the liquid. It should be thinner than pancake batter---add more water if necessary to achieve the consistency of heavy cream. Allow this to rest for at least an hour.
-
Step 3
Preheat the oven to 425 F. Prick the skins of the sausages with a sharp knife several times and place them in the roasting dish. If you are using lean Italian sausages or breakfast sausages add a few tablespoons of vegetable oil to the pan. Cook them in the oven for 10 minutes, rotate them and bake for another 10 minutes.
-
Step 4
Remove the hot pan from the oven and immediately pour in the Yorkshire pudding batter so that it surrounds all the sausages. Put it back in the oven.
-
Step 5
Bake the Toad in the Hole for 25 to 35 minutes, or until risen and golden brown.
