Toad-In-The-Hole

Directions

1. 1
   Heat oven to 450 degrees.
2. 2
   Place sausages in a baking dish about 9 inches square by 3 inches deep.
3. 3
   Rub sausages with oil, and oil bottom and sides of pan as well.
4. 4
   Bake until lightly browned, about 15 minutes.
5. 5
   Meanwhile, whisk together milk, eggs and salt in a mixing bowl, and set aside.
6. 6
   When sausages are nearly ready, add flour to milk mixture and mix until smooth.
7. 7
   Transfer sausages to a plate and set aside.
8. 8
   Pour just enough batter into hot pan to cover the bottom.
9. 9
   Return to oven and bake until batter is set, about 5 minutes.
10. 10
    Arrange sausages evenly across top of batter, and quickly pour in rest of batter.
11. 11
    Return pan to oven and bake until batter billows up around sausages and has a crusty top, about 25 minutes.
12. 12
    Cut into squares and serve immediately, because the crust will sink as it cools.
