Air Fried Scotch Eggs
Lex and I went on a food tour in Savannah a couple of years ago and it was seriously one of the best times. At our last stop, we were introduced to scotch eggs. A scotch egg is a hard boiled egg coated in sausage and breadcrumbs, then deep fried. This was hands down my favorite treat from our entire food tour. This recipe is a significantly lightened up version of the traditional treat, using the air fryer and turkey sausage.
