INGREDIENTS
2 lbs Italian Sausage
2 apples, peeled and cored
1/2 cup raisins
Over medium heat lightly brown the sausage with apples and raisins until 3/4 of the sausage is gray but still barely pink. Drain fat.
Mix in:
1 teaspoon anise
1 1/2 lbs baked potatoes, cooled
1 onion, chopped
1 teaspoon sage
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
salt and pepper to taste
Fill a quiche pan with mixture
Top with
1 layer of puff pastry
brush with an egg wash made of 1 egg and 2 tablespoons of milk
Bake in a 450 oven for 30-40 minutes (if potatoes were chilled, 40 minutes)
Serves 8
I strayed from the basic recipe using turkey Italian sausage from Tops. I used a biscuit batter for a topping rather than the puff pastry the last time I made this for a luncheon.
