Time 30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ cup Greek yogurt
¼ cup stone-ground mustard
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
12 ounces spicy pork sausage
12 quail eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
1 egg, beaten
1 cup panko bread crumbs
1 serving cooking spray

Steps:

  • Combine yogurt, mustard, garlic powder, and cayenne in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate mustard dipping sauce until ready to use.
  • Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place flour on a flat plate. Divide sausage into 12 equal balls. Using your hands, flatten each ball into a paper thin patty. Dust both sides of each patty with flour; the flour on one side will help the sausage adhere to the egg and the flour on the other side will keep the sausage from sticking to your hands.
  • Shape each sausage patty around a hard-boiled quail egg, making sure the egg is completely sealed inside. Dip each in the beaten egg and coat in bread crumbs.
  • Spray the air fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray. Place 6 eggs in the basket and mist the tops with cooking spray. Cook for 8 minutes. Flip and spray again. Cook 6 additional minutes. Repeat with remaining eggs.
  • To serve, slice each egg in half and serve with mustard dipping sauce.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my scotch eggs didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These mini scotch eggs were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasonings next time.

I'm not a huge fan of scotch eggs, but these were actually pretty good. The air fryer made them less greasy than traditional scotch eggs.

I've made scotch eggs in the oven before, but I have to say, the air fryer makes them so much better. They're perfectly crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside.

I love that these mini scotch eggs are baked in the air fryer instead of fried. It makes them a healthier option without sacrificing any of the flavor.
