Best 4 Bratwurst With Creamy Apple Compote Recipes

BRATWURST WITH SAUERKRAUT AND APPLE-POTATO HASH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil; add the potatoes and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bratwurst and cook, turning, until browned, about 4 minutes. Remove to a rimmed baking sheet and keep warm in the oven.
• Add 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet along with the potatoes and apples; toss. Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Increase the heat to medium high and cook, tossing occasionally, until the potatoes and apples are golden brown and tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the scallions and sage and cook until the scallions are wilted, about 2 minutes. Add the vinegar, honey and the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Cook, stirring, until the potatoes and apples are glazed, about 1 more minute.
• Mix the sour cream with the mustard in a small bowl. Serve the bratwurst with the potatoes and apples, sauerkraut and sour cream mixture.

BRATS, ONIONS, AND APPLES

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook bratwurst in hot oil until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove bratwurst to a plate, reserving drippings in the skillet.
• Stir apple and onion slices into the reserved drippings; cook and stir until the onion softens, about 6 minutes. Return bratwurst to the skillet, nestling them into the onion mixture. Pour beer over the sausages; season with salt and pepper.
• Bring the beer to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until the the bratwurst is no longer pink in the center, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

BRATWURST WITH APPLES, ONION, AND SAUERKRAUT

Steps:

• Position rack in center of oven; preheat to 400°F. Place caraway seeds and fennel seeds in small resealable plastic bag. Crush seeds with mallet. Add flour and pepper to bag; shake to blend. Spread sauerkraut over bottom of 13x9x2-inch glass or ceramic baking dish. Sprinkle 1/3 of flour mixture over. Arrange onion slices over; sprinkle with half of remaining flour mixture, then lightly with salt. Spread half of apple slices over, then sprinkle with remaining flour mixture. Place bratwurst over apples, then arrange remaining apple slices around bratwurst. Tuck in bay leaves. Mix broth, vermouth, and ketchup in measuring cup. Pour broth mixture evenly over. Cover tightly with foil.
• Roast bratwurst 45 minutes. Uncover; brush with melted butter. Roast uncovered until edges of apples and sausages begin to brown, about 25 minutes longer. Serve with bread.

• In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, onions, caraway seeds, and apples and toss well with your hands. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to the slow cooker and pour in the vinegar mixture. Place the bratwurst on top. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 6 hours, until the cabbage is tender to your taste.
