How to Make Sausage Apple Breakfast Casserole

  1. In a large skillet, simmer 1 lb sausage links in about 1/2 inch of water for 10 minutes. Remove sausage and set aside.
  2. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the same skillet. Add 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and chopped into 1-inch chunks. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until softened.
  3. Remove apples from skillet and combine with the cooked sausage in a large oven-safe dish (approximately 9x13 inches).
  4. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 2 tablespoons brown sugar evenly over the sausage and apple mixture.
  5. Dot the top with 1 tablespoon of remaining butter, cut into small pieces.
  6. Cover the casserole dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes at 375°F (190°C).
  7. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the sausage is browned and the apples are tender.
  8. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
