4cupssauerkrautrinsed, drained, and gently squeezed
2poundsbratwurst sausages
1tablespoonbrown sugar(So Nourished)
1/2teaspoonsalt
1/2teaspoonblack pepper
Instructions
Begin by rinsing the sauerkraut, then gently squeeze it to retain some moisture before placing it in a large casserole dish. The dish should be spacious enough to accommodate the sausages in a single layer.
Sprinkle the sauerkraut with salt, pepper, and brown sugar. Lightly mix these ingredients to distribute the flavors throughout.
Place the bratwurst sausages on top of the sauerkraut. Use a fork to puncture each sausage several times, about 4-5 pricks, to ensure even cooking and maintain juiciness.
Transfer the casserole dish to a preheated oven set at 350°F. Bake uncovered for approximately 45 minutes or until the sausages reach an internal temperature of 165°F, ensuring they are thoroughly cooked.
