How to Make Toad In The Hole With Bacon

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
**Prepare the Toads:**
Wrap 8 sausages with 12 slices of bacon. Secure with toothpicks if needed.
Place the bacon-wrapped sausages in a large, oven-safe roasting tin.
Scatter 1 medium chopped onion over the sausages.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the sausages and onions.
Bake for 20 minutes.
**Prepare the Hole:**
Sift 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon salt into a large bowl.
Make a well in the center. Add 2 large eggs and gradually whisk in ½ cup of milk, beating for 2 minutes.
Stir in the remaining 1 cup of milk and 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard.
Remove the roasting tin from the oven (sausages should be just starting to brown).
Pour the batter evenly over the sausages.
Bake for a further 40-45 minutes, or until the batter is golden brown and puffed up.
**Prepare the Gravy:**
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Sauté 1 medium chopped onion for 5 minutes.
Stir in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute.
Add 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and 2 cups of chicken stock.
Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season to taste.
Serve the Toad in the Hole hot, generously drizzled with gravy. Serve with mashed potatoes and your favorite vegetables.
