Conversions
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C fan.
- One at a time, lay the bacon rashers out flat, stretch them by scraping a knife along them, then wrap each one around a chipolata. Place on a lined oven tray until you have 16 bacon wrapped sausages.
- Brush each one with maple syrup and put the tray into the oven on a high shelf for 15 minutes. Remove the tray from the oven, turn each sausage over and brush again with maple syrup. Return the tray to the oven and cook for another 15 minutes.
- Transfer the pigs in blankets to a serving dish and brush with any remaining maple syrup before serving.
Notes
You could prep these the day before and put them in the fridge, then simply glaze and cook the next day. Bring up to room temperature before cooking so they cook evenly.
