1. Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 360°F (180°C) for about 5 minutes.
2. Prepare the Sausages:
- Place the sausages in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are spaced out evenly.
- Cook the sausages in the air fryer for 5-7 minutes until they start to brown and release some fat. Remove the sausages from the air fryer and set aside.
3. Make the Yorkshire Pudding Batter:
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
4. Assemble and Cook:
- Carefully pour the vegetable oil or melted butter into the bottom of the air fryer basket.
- Place the partially cooked sausages back into the air fryer basket, arranging them evenly.
- Pour the Yorkshire pudding batter over the sausages, ensuring they are covered evenly.
- Return the basket to the air fryer and cook at 360°F (180°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the batter is puffed up and golden brown.
5. Serve:
- Remove the Toad in the Hole from the air fryer and let it cool slightly.
- Cut into portions and serve hot, optionally with gravy and vegetables on the side.
Tips:
- Sausages: You can use any type of pork sausages you prefer, such as Cumberland or Lincolnshire sausages.
- Batter Consistency: The batter should be similar to pancake batter—smooth and pourable.
- Additional Flavors: Feel free to add herbs or spices to the batter for extra flavor.
Enjoy your Air Fryer Toad in the Hole—a comforting and hearty dish that’s perfect for any meal!
