Dairy Free Toad in the Hole
Dairy free toad-in-the-hole with optional added vegetables is a delicious and easy family meal. Golden baked sausages are nestled in a crispy dairy free batter, with colourful pops of tomatoes, pepper and onions.
Equipment
- Baking tray, approx 35 x 25 cm
- Mixing bowl and whisk
- Jug
Ingredients
- 1 small red onion
- ½ red pepper
- 12 cherry tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 450 g sausages
- 100g plain flour
- 2 eggs
- 160 ml oat milk
- seasoning to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220 degrees (200 fan).
- Peel and roughly chop the onion into pieces about 2cm. Slice the red pepper into thin strips. Prick the sausages with a fork or the point of a knife.1 small red onion, ½ red pepper
- Pour the olive oil onto the baking tray. Add the sausages, pepper and onions and stir to coat with the oil.1 tablespoon olive oil, 450 g sausages
- Cook the sausages and vegetables for 15 minutes in the preheated oven.
- Meanwhile, make the batter. Add the flour and a pinch of salt and pepper to a bowl and make a well in the centre.100g plain flour, seasoning
- Break the eggs into the well in the flour. Using a whisk gradually incorporate some of the flour from the edge of the bowl.2 eggs
- Add the milk to the centre and mix in the remaining flour. Whisk until the batter is smooth and free from lumps.160 ml oat milk
- Remove the sausages and vegetables from the oven after 15 minutes and quickly pour over the batter and scatter over the tomatoes. Return the tray to the oven as soon as possible.12 cherry tomatoes
- Cook the dairy-free toad in the hole for 30 minutes. It's important not to open the oven for at least the first 20 minutes!
Notes
- The added vegetables are optional. If you prefer, omit the vegetables and just serve extra veggies on the side.
- Add a few herbs to the tray with the vegetables if you like. Thyme, sage or rosemary all go well.
- The batter can be made in a blender if preferred.
- I like to use a large baking tin approximately 25-35cm to make dairy free toad-in-the-hole as the larger surface area makes for a crispier, fluffier result. Some of the batter needs to be directly on the tray rather than just on top of the sausages and veggies.
- A metal baking tin is better than a china dish as it holds the heat better. It's also easier to remove toad-in-the-hole from a metal baking dish.
