A Paleo twist on the classic pigs in a blanket, this recipe replaces the traditional dough with a grain-free coconut flour batter and uses nitrate-free bacon and grass-fed sausage for a healthier, keto-friendly version.
Ingredients: 1 lb nitrate-free, sugar-free bacon. 1 lb grass-fed beef or turkey sausage. 1 tsp garlic powder. 1 tsp onion powder. 1/2 tsp smoked paprika. 1/4 tsp black pepper. 1/4 cup coconut flour. 1 tsp baking powder. 1/4 tsp sea salt. 1 large egg. 2 tbsp water.
Instructions: Set the oven temperature to 375F 190C. The sausage should be combined with smoked paprika, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder in a bowl. Blend thoroughly. Create tiny, one-inch-long sausages out of the sausage mixture. Halve the strips of bacon. Using a toothpick, wrap a half strip of bacon around each sausage piece. Arrange the encased sausages onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Mix the baking powder, sea salt, and coconut flour in a separate bowl. When the flour mixture is well combined and a thick batter forms, add the egg and water and stir. Distribute the batter evenly over each wrapped sausage using a spoon. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the batter is golden brown and the bacon is crispy, in a preheated oven. Enjoy while hot!
