Hey, doesn't that recipe need some baking powder, or perhaps the use of a self-rising flour such as Bisquick?

Although not mentioned here, most recipes call for "all-purpose" flour, which is not self-raising. The batter doesnt rise a great deal, you just about cover the sausages with it and it at most doubles in height and leaves the sausages in little troughs.

Another thing is to use the same batter for yorks puds and add jam instead of syrup to them - very nice too.

No because when you whisk the mixture the air is put in, and the egg also makes it rise, i find that by adding 1 extra egg white gives it a bit more lift
