Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the sausages and cook, turning occasionally, until browned all over and cooked through, 8 to 12 minutes.
  3. Alternatively, preheat your oven to 425°F. Arrange the sausages on a baking sheet and roast until browned and cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes.

Recipe Tips

For extra browning, pat the sausages dry with a paper towel before cooking.

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

FAQ

Can I use a different type of sausage?

Yes, you can substitute with any breakfast sausage, but the maple flavor is what makes this recipe special. Look for maple-flavored sausages or add a drizzle of maple syrup during cooking.

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. You can also cut one open to check that there is no pink in the center.

Can I make these ahead of time?

Absolutely! Cook the sausages, let them cool and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave before serving.
