Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the sausage links and cook, turning occasionally, until browned all over and cooked through, about 8-12 minutes.
  3. For an oven alternative: Preheat oven to 425°F. Place sausage on a baking sheet and roast until browned and cooked through, 18-20 minutes.

Recipe Tips

For even browning, don’t overcrowd the pan – cook in batches if needed.

Let sausages rest for a minute after cooking to retain juices.

If using the oven method, line the baking sheet with parchment for easy cleanup.

FAQ

Can I use maple syrup instead of maple-flavored sausage?

This recipe uses pre-made maple pork sausage, which already has maple flavor incorporated. If you want to add extra maple sweetness, you can brush the cooked sausages with a little pure maple syrup before serving.

How do I know when the sausages are fully cooked?

The sausages are done when they are browned on all sides and the internal temperature reaches 160°F. If you don’t have a thermometer, cut one open – the meat should be no longer pink and the juices should run clear.

Can I freeze cooked maple pork sausages?

Yes! Let them cool completely, then store in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 3 months. Reheat in a pan or microwave when ready to eat.
