I made Toad in the Hole frequently, while my children grew up. My Mother-in-Law had given me the recipe. She passed and I'd lost her recipe. I waited until I made (and tasted) your recipe. I wish I could have uploaded a photo. It was a sight to behold. The flavor is correct and wonderful. Being stateside, we you plain breakfast sausage. Thank you so much.

are the sausages cut up or baked up whole? i suspect they are (or should be) cut into reasonable chunks.

It depends how big they are! If you have really large sausages, definitely cut them in half!

I just booked our family vacation to London! To celebrate and get in the spirit, I made the Toad in the Hole for dinner last night. My sausages didn't really submerge (kind of stayed adrift on top) so there wasn't really any Toad/Hole action, but the taste and texture were great. I did chill the batter for a while, and since the sausages cooked a bit first, the batter did hit a hot greased pan. It puffed up nicely.

Sometimes a few of the sausages might drift to the top! Glad it was delicious all the same & enjoy London, such a fantastic place for a holiday!

In the article you say that for the best results the batter should be chilled for at least 1 hour, or overnight. You also say that the batter should be poured into a pan that is sizzling hot with grease - like I do with a dutch baby. That should help with the results!
