How to Make Bratwurst Bake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel and quarter 1 large onion and 1 large apple.
  3. Rub 1 pound of defrosted bratwurst with 2 cloves of minced garlic.
  4. Place brats in a foil-lined baking pan, leaving enough foil to create a sealed packet.
  5. Arrange onion and apple quarters over the brats.
  6. Generously sprinkle 1 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper over the brats, onions, and apples.
  7. Fold the foil over the brats to create a sealed packet. Crimp the edges tightly to prevent leaks.
  8. Bake for 60-65 minutes, or until the brats are cooked through and the apples are tender.
