A golden saute of chicken-apple sausage, onion and Stemilt apples is nestled inside these breakfast popovers, perfectly balancing the sweet-savory spectrum.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add shallots to pan and sauté until just translucent; about 1 minute. Add apple and sausage. Break up sausage with a wooden spoon. Add 1 teaspoon salt and black pepper. Sauté mixture until golden brown, stirring intermittently; about 8 to 10 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, blend eggs in an electric blender until just frothy; about 30-45 seconds. Add flour, ½ teaspoon salt and milk (or soymilk); blend for another 20-30 seconds, until just combined. This makes about 32 ounces. Set aside.
  4. Lightly butter insides of a large six-cup muffin tin. Spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of sausage mixture into each muffin cup, using all of mixture equally portioned among cups. Pour egg batter over sausage mixture, filling each cup to just below the rim. (Note: you may have a few ounces left over.)
  5. Position oven rack in center of oven. Place muffin tin in oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until golden and puffy. Serve immediately with pure maple syrup and powdered sugar (note: use sifter to delicately apply sugar.)
  6. * To easily remove meat from casing, hold sausage firmly in center and gently squeeze out each side to push filling out and into skillet. Discard casings.
