Ingredients

• 150 grams plain flour
• 3 large eggs
• 300 ml milk
• 6 medium sausages
• 4 rashers bacon
• 1 teaspoon Vegemite
• 3 tablespoons barbecue sauce
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 220°C (200°C fan-forced).

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the plain flour, eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until you have a smooth batter. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large oven-safe dish or roasting pan in the oven for 5 minutes.

Step 4

Meanwhile, cook the sausages in a skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until browned but not fully cooked. Set them aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, crisp up the bacon rashers, then remove to a plate lined with paper towels.

Step 6

Add the Vegemite to the skillet and stir it into the leftover bacon drippings, then mix in the barbecue sauce. Coat the sausages in this mixture until fully covered.

Step 7

Carefully remove the hot dish from the oven and pour the rested batter into the dish.

Step 8

Quickly arrange the coated sausages and crispy bacon rashers evenly across the batter. Return the dish to the oven immediately to maintain heat.

Step 9

Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the batter is puffed up and golden brown.

Step 10

Slice and serve hot, optionally with extra barbecue sauce for dipping.
