Baked Sausages with Apples Sheet Pan Dinner

Baked Sausages with Apples Sheet Pan Dinner – these pork sausages are perfectly baked together with apples, fingerling potatoes, baby carrots and lots of fresh herbs, all in one pan making it super easy for cleanup and ready in just 35 minutes!

Baked Sausages

Pork sausages with apples make a perfect meal for anytime of the year, in my opinion. And these sausages are roasted to perfection in the same sheet pan with lots of chopped apples, fingerling potatoes and baby carrots, then drizzled with olive oil and honey and loaded with fresh herbs such as sage and rosemary. The aroma in your house as you bake this will drive you crazy.

There’s also nothing easier than whipping this all up on a sheet pan. This recipe is so perfect for when you’re looking for something quick and easy but still beautiful and full of complex flavor. It’s possible to pull together something that is super tasty but still super easy!

The Deal With Sheet Pan Dinners

Sheet pan dinners are essentially a one pot meal but for the oven. We’re going to cook our nice little sausages alongside some plump little  potatoes and apples all on the same sheet pan. It speeds up the cooking process and cuts down on cooking time. I also like this method because it helps with portioning if you’re cooking for one!

Ingredients In Baked Sausages with Apples

  • Sausage – Pork sausage is what I’m using today, but feel free to use whichever kind you prefer!
  • Veggies – Carrots, fingerling potatoes, and red onion cut into wedges.
  • Apples – I used granny smith apples today as they cook the best, be sure to choose something nice and tart.
  • Herbs – Fresh sage and fresh rosemary all chopped up. If dried is all you have on hand just keep in mind that 1 teaspoon dried equals 1 tablespoon fresh.
  • Liquids – Olive oil and honey drizzled liberally over top.
  • Seasoning – Salt and pepper to taste.

How To Make Baked Sausages with Apples

  1. Preheat the oven: To 400 F degrees.
  2. Prep your potatoes and apples: In a large bowl combine the apple cubes, fingerling potatoes, baby carrots, onion, sage and rosemary. Drizzle the honey and olive oil over, season generously with salt and pepper then toss really well so that everything.
  3. Bake the dish: Arrange the veggies and apples in a large shallow roasting pan. Arrange the sausages in and around the vegetables. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden and cooked through.

Can’t Find Fingerling Potatoes?

You can cut regular potatoes into 1″ pieces if you can’t find fingerling potatoes. If you can find fingerling potatoes keep in mind that some are bigger than others, cut them in half so that they’re roughly all the same size, this way they will cook at the same time.

What Kind Of Sausage Can I Use?

I used pork sausages from my local butcher, but you can use any type that is most convenient for you.

  • Italian sausage
  • Chorizo
  • Breakfast sausage
  • Turkey sausage

Can I Use Other Veggies?

Of course you can! This dish is actually perfect for bulking up with some of your favorite roast-able toast-able veggies. Here’s some of my favorites.

  • Brussel sprouts
  • Yams
  • Squash
  • Zucchini
  • Whole garlic cloves
  • Head of cabbage cut into wedges

Storing Leftover Baked Sausages with Apples

You can store this dish in an air tight container in the fridge for 3 – 5 days. I wouldn’t recommend freezing this dish as the veggies don’t hold up well to thawing after cooking.

I am making this for the second time tonight! Super easy and very tasty, and much better than greasy sausages in a pan!! I’ve varied the veggies, and the apples are so delicious in this! First time I used Garlic and Honey flavored big sausages, and tonight will be maple with chipotle and black pepper…..all made from meat from my brother-in-laws farm! This will be a regular in our house! Thanks for the wonderful recipe!

A question for you. Are the apples supposed to be peeled or left unpeeled?

I left them unpeeled, but you can certainly peel them if you’d like.

My hubby was skeptical – said it was scrumptious and to add it to favs <3 !!! Didn't have exact ingredients so I improvised (used Mac Intosh apples; had sweet potatoes; used Badia complete seasoning – instead of sage and rosemary – and it was still top notch – will be doing this as a favorite. All the flavors melded together so nicely – and man did the house smell great while it was cooking. Oh, also used both sweet and hot Italian sausage when making this delicious dish. That's what's so great about cooking you can improvise with what you have on hand. Because I made a rather large batch I cooked mine for 1 hour – it was perfect.

This was absolutely delicious! So easy, and the family loved it! I’ll be adding this into my regular menu rotation. Mine did take a lot longer than 30 minutes to cook (almost twice that), and I had to turn the oven up to 450 for the last 20 minutes.

absolutely loved it – my hubby was a bit skeptical at first – he’s not a real apple lover… but he now loves this recipe. I think i will be adding this to some acorn squash… what are your thoughts on that… or just stick to the simple yummy recipe we have?

If you can fit everything on one pan sure, the cooking time should be the same.

Are you starting with raw sausages or precooked sausages? I would like to make this with Honeysuckle White Italian turkey sausages.

Yes, they are raw. The Italian turkey sausages should be fine.

Very easy and tasty, much better with Italian sausage than with Brats for my taste. Husband can’t believe how quickly it cooks.

Excellent. I used Brats and maple syrup instead of honey. Please ADD honey or maple syrup to the sheet pan AFTER COOKING. The sugars in the honey and maple syrup will burn before the vegetables/meat are thoroughly cooked.

Have made this several times and it’s super easy, takes no time at all. I have changed up the veggies by adding sliced Roma Tomatoes and Bell Pepper. I have also used Peaches with the Apples and gave a small drizzle of Balsamic Vinegar. I have used several different kinds of sausages like flavored ones like the Chicken and Apple by Aidells.

Edit to my review – I didn’t add the potatoes or carrots because I was serving this as a side to French toast.

Excellent! This is a great dish and it takes no time to prepare. Lining the sheet pan with parchment paper makes cleanup a breeze. I inserted a skewer lengthwise through the sausage so that it wouldn’t curl as it roasted and would brown evenly on all sides. The next time I’ll add fennel to the apple/onion mix, and will start the sausage a few minutes ahead. I found that the apples were a bit too soft by the time the sausage was done.
