These bite-sized treats feature sticky honey-mustard glazed vegetarian sausages nestled inside light and airy mini Yorkshire puddings. A delightful vegetarian twist on the classic British toad-in-the-hole, they make the perfect party appetizer or festive snack.
Preheat your oven to 230°C (210°C fan/gas 8). In a mixing bowl, whisk the plain flour and eggs with a pinch of salt until combined, then gradually pour in the milk, whisking constantly until the batter is completely smooth.
Drizzle a small amount of vegetable oil into each hole of a 12-hole cupcake tin. Place the tin in the oven for 10 minutes until the oil is shimmering and very hot.
Carefully remove the hot tin from the oven and quickly divide the batter between the holes. Bake for 15 minutes until the Yorkshire puddings have risen, turned golden brown, and feel firm. Transfer them to a wire rack to cool.
Reduce the oven temperature to 220°C (200°C fan/gas 7). In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, wholegrain mustard, and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Season with a little salt and pepper to taste.
Place the mini sausages in a bowl and pour the honey mustard mixture over them, stirring well to ensure they are evenly coated. Transfer the sausages to a baking dish lined with parchment paper.
Bake the sausages for 10–12 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are cooked through and the glaze is sticky. To serve, tuck a sausage into the center of each mini Yorkshire pudding and return to the oven for 3–4 minutes to warm through.
For the best rise on your Yorkshire puddings, ensure the oil is piping hot before adding the batter. If you are making these ahead of time, store the cooled puddings in an airtight container and the sausages separately; simply assemble and reheat just before your guests arrive.
