Toad in the Hole with Cinnamon and Apple

Turn the oven on to 220⁰C (200⁰C in a fan oven; 425⁰F; gas mark 7) and give it 5 minutes to heat up.

Oil 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).

Immediately put the flour, milk, eggs, cinnamon, salt and pepper into a large bowl and mix until the mixture goes smooth.

After 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.

(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.
