Kolaches

Or some people might consider these pigs in a blanket.  Where I come from a pig in a blanket is served during New Years for "good luck" and is a piece of cabbage with meat inside.  Very tasty in my opinion!  Texas version, however, is a roll with a sausage link in the middle.  I again used Meagan Peters recipe for this wonderful breakfast!  It was so delicious!  We ate them with organic ketchup that is flavored with agave nectar.  Super tasty!

Kolaches

Dough:
2 ½ cups almond meal
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. baking soda
1/3 cup grapeseed oil (I find this cheap at our local Marshall's)
¼ cup agave nectar
2 large eggs

1 Package of sausage (I used turkey sausage)

Directions
1) Preheat oven to 350°
2) Grease baking sheet with coconut oil.  I usually take a small paper towel and dab that in the oil.
3) Heat the sausages in a small pan while you make the dough.
4) Mix all the wet ingredients in a medium sized bowl.
5) Mix all the dry ingredients in a large bowl. 
6) Combine the wet and dry ingredients.
7) Grab about a ¼ cup dough and flatten in your hands.  A little trick I learned this morning is to have your hands a bit damp.  That way the dough doesn't stick to your hands.
8) Roll the dough around the sausage and place on the baking sheet.
9) Bake for 12-15 minutes and enjoy!

Mix the wet ingredients.

Mix the dry ingredients.

Warm the sausage while making the dough.

The final product...with a little ketchup!  DELICIOUS!
