A crispy coating made with cornflakes and pork sausage gives a different treatment to these hard-boiled eggs. They're fabulous hot out of the oven. Or enjoy them cold for a snack before a soccer or baseball game. —Dorothy Smith, El Dorado, Arkansas

Divide the sausage into 6 portions; flatten and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Shape each portion around a peeled hard-boiled egg. Roll in beaten egg, then in cornflake crumbs. Place on a rack in a baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 30 minutes or until meat is no longer pink, turning every 10 minutes.

This is a wonderful recipe that I have been making for years - best baked, not deep fried.  I use medium eggs, form a meat patty on your hand, place egg on meat patty, wrap around the hard boiled egg, covering completely with meat, dip in egg & roll in the crumbs.  Bake on my broiler pan & they are wonderful.  Always make 1 doz. or more as they go fast! Taught a cooking class to grade school children & they loved them & it was easy for them to make.  Always get compliments when I take or serve them for a brunch.

I made Scotch Eggs for lunch 11/09/19.  I used Panko crumbs instead of cornflakes and browned the coated eggs in a bit of oil before baking them. My family loved them!

These turned out delicious but I had to make a few changes because I didn't have bulk sausage. I used plain ground pork and then added a few more spices; thyme, sage, nutmeg and the pepper. I followed the method exactly as written. We all liked them and I will be making them again soon.

They really don't turn out at all like the picture and they have a peculiar taste.

I love scotch eggs. I tried this recipe because of the cornflake crust. They were quite tasty. The coating was crisp which was a nice texture.

Recipe was delicious, planning to try it with sage sausage next.  Would be helpful to know if the 3/4 c. Cornflakes is measured before or after crushing.  ALSO, be sure to spray Pam in the baking g rack or they will stick and be damaged during turning.
