Homemade Oven-Baked Scotch Eggs are a flavorful twist on the traditional British pub favorite. Originating from England, this dish combines protein-packed boiled eggs encased in seasoned ground meat, such as sausage or turkey, and coated in breadcrumbs for a satisfying crunch. Unlike the deep-fried version, the oven-baked method reduces added fats while retaining its rich taste and texture. Scotch eggs offer a good balance of protein from the egg and meat, making them a hearty snack or meal option. Baking them also enhances their nutritional profile, lowering calories and saturated fats. However, depending on the choice of meat and breadcrumbs, they can still be high in sodium, so it's wise to prepare them with lighter, whole-grain ingredients. Perfectly portable, Scotch eggs make an excellent addition to picnics or lunchboxes for those seeking protein-rich, flavorful bites.
