Name: Smoked Gouda Sausage Balls with Spicy Honey
Prep time: 15 min
Total time: 25 min
Yield: 6
Ingredients: 6 large eggs; 1/2 cup almond flour; 1 (16 oz.) Jones Dairy Farm All Natural Pork Sausage Roll, thawed; salt and pepper; refined coconut oil, for frying; 1 tablespoon honey wholegrain mustard; 1/4 cup raw honey

Crispy on the Outside, Soft-Boiled in the Middle, High-Protein All the Way Through

Scotch eggs get a gluten-free treatment here. Soft-boiled eggs are wrapped in a seasoned mixture of Jones All Natural Pork Sausage and toasted almond flour, then deep-fried until the outside is golden and crispy and the yolk stays perfectly jammy in the center. A simple honey wholegrain mustard sauce goes alongside for dipping. High in protein, naturally gluten-free, and impressive enough for a brunch spread or a serious snack.

Directions

Place eggs in small pot and cover with cold water. Remove from heat as soon as water comes to a boil, cover and let stand for 4 minutes. Drain and place eggs in an ice-water mix to cool. Very carefully, crack and peel eggs under cold running water. Set eggs aside.
In dry sauté pan over medium heat, carefully toast almond flour. Shake pan, moving almond flour around. Toast until golden brown 2-5 minutes.
In large bowl, combine sausage, toasted almond flour, salt and pepper. Mix until just combined.
Flatten 1/3 cup of sausage mixture into wide circle. Place soft-boiled egg in center and carefully wrap meat mixture around egg until fully covered. Wrap gently so as not to break the yolk. Repeat for each egg.
In large pot, pour oil to a depth of 2” and heat over medium heat to 375 degrees. Fry for 5-6 minutes, turning occasionally, until sausage coating is golden brown and crisp. Use slotted spoon to transfer eggs to paper towels to drain. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
For the dipping sauce, mix honey and mustard together in small bowl. Serve warm with eggs.
