Description

Pigs in a blanket are given the paleo treatment in this twist on the classic where eggs are 'wrapped' in a sausage blanket.

Ingredients

2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons dried sage
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/8 teaspoon dried marjoram
2 pounds ground pork
1 tablespoon butter, or more as needed
8 eggs

Directions

1 Stir salt, sage, black pepper, turmeric, and marjoram together in a bowl. Place pork in a separate bowl. Sprinkle salt mixture evenly over pork and stir to combine. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
2 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter eight 8-ounce ramekins.
3 Divide sausage mixture into 8 balls. Press each ball into a ramekin, creating a well in the center of each. Crack an egg into each sausage well.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until sausage is cooked through and eggs are set, 30 to 40 minutes.
