Method
- STEP 1Turn the oven on to 220⁰C (200⁰C in a fan oven; 425⁰F; gas mark 7) and give it 5 minutes to heat up.
- STEP 2Oil the inside of a dish (so the batter doesn't stick to it; about 25 cm x 15 cm is a good size), put the sausages in then put it in the oven for 15 minutes (to brown them and heat the dish).
- STEP 3Immediately put the flour, milk, eggs, cinnamon, salt and pepper into a large bowl and mix until the mixture goes smooth.
- STEP 4After the 15 minutes, take the sausages out, [optional: pop them a few times with a knife to let the juices out (to mix with the batter),] pour in all the batter and get it back in the oven quickly and bake for 25 minutes.
- STEP 5(Serving suggestion) Cut some broccoli and with 10 minutes to go boil some water in a small saucepan and cook the broccoli for about 5 minutes until the stalk starts softening [tip: cook slices of the inside of the main stem too]. Then use the water to make the gravy.
