Baked Breakfast Sausages
Baked sausages feed a crowd with minimum effort. To ensure they cook evenly, elevate them on the rack of a broiler pan, and allow any excess fat to drip down into the pan, or outfit a roasting pan or baking pan with a rack. These sausages are the perfect brunch dish to serve alongside a cheesy mushroom frittata or Dutch baby pancake with fresh fruit.
Ingredients
- 18 to 24 breakfast sausage links, 1 1/2 to 2 lb. total weight
Directions
Preheat an oven to 400°F.
Place the sausages on a rack in a shallow roasting pan or broiler pan. Roast until the sausages are shiny but not yet browned, about 10 minutes. Turn the sausages over and continue roasting until cooked through, about 5 minutes more.
Preheat a broiler. Place the pan under the broiler and broil the sausages, turning once, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a warmed platter and serve hot. Serves 6.
