Baked Scotch Eggs

FF BAKED SCOTCH EGGS

Serves 4 to 6 … Adaptation of UK classic. This is good for picnics, snacks. Serve hot or cold

1 pound ground turkey

Seasoning (I used about 1 tsp. each dry mustard, dill and ground fennel, 1/4 teas. ground cloves, pinch of cayenne)

6 hard-cooked eggs, peeled

Salt and pepper (Phase 3 only)

1 egg, slightly beaten

1/2 Tablespoon water

2 slices toast, made into crumbs (or 1/2 cup ground flax seed)

Mix ground turkey with seasonings. Divide into six portions, flatten (I used waxed paper), and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Shape each portion around a hard-cooked egg.

Beat egg and mix in water. Roll egg in this mixture, then gently in breadcrumbs or flax seed.

Place on rack in a baking pan. (If your rack doesn’t have a non-stick finish, you need to spray it with a non-stick spray before placing eggs on it.) Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes. Turn once after 15 minutes.

Can be cut into halves or quarters before serving.
