Scotch Eggs (Oven-Style)

These cooked eggs wrapped in sausage  are just a tad healthier than traditional Scotch eggs in that they aren't fried in oil.  These are baked and give practically the same result.  For crispy outsides, spray them with cooking spray before you bake them.  






Ingredients
6 large eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup finely crushed corn flakes
7 oz. fresh breakfast sausage

1. Boil 4 eggs, let cool, then peel them.
2. Flatten sausages into thin patties over the length of your hand.
3. Lay one boiled egg on top of sausage and wrap sausage around the egg, sealing to completely enclose.  Repeat with remaining eggs and sausage.
4. Whisk remaining 2 eggs in a medium bowl.  Also have a bowl for the flour and one for the crushed corn flakes.
5. Dip sausage-wrapped eggs into the flour, shaking off excess, then coat with egg wash.  Roll in corn flakes to coat.
6. Place eggs on a baking sheet that has been sprayed with cooking spray.  
7. Bake at 375 for 25-30 minutes, turning every ten minutes for even baking.
