It’s November’s Monthly Featured Ingredient Challenge at I Heart Cooking Clubs and we are going with Apples and Pears! I still a lot of recipes marked with sticky notes from Hugh’s River Cottage Fruit Every Day!* and so I decided to make
Apple Bangers
a variation of the traditional British dish made of sausages and mashed potatoes. I liked this tasty dish. Here’s the way to my collection of apple recipes, I recommend apple, potato and red onion salad
Apple Bangers
Yield: Serves 2 as a main course, 4 as a side dish
Apple Bangers are a traditional British Dish
Ingredients:
- a trickle of olive,rapeseed or sunflower oil; Ulrike: rapeseed oil
- 4 well-seasoned butcher’s sausages
- 4 medium-large eating apples; Ulrike: Juwel von Kirchwerder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 °C/Gas 4. Line a small roasting dish with baking parchment, or grease it well
- Heat a little oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the sausages and cook them for about 10 minutes, turning frequently – they’ll cook through in the oven.
- Meanwhile, cut a little slice off the base of each apple so they stand steady. Run a small, sharp knife around the equator of each apple, scoring the skin so it won’t split as it cooks. Use an apple corer to remove the core of each apple from the top. You’ll need to go into the apple with the corer several times, moving it into a slightly different place each time, in order to create a space in the middle large enough to take a sausage.
- Stand the apples on the baking sheet. Pick the browned sausages up with a fork and push into the apple cavities, pressing them down so they go right in. Transfer to the oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the apples are tender to the point of a sharp knife. Take out one of the sausages and check it’s cooked through and piping hot in the centre.
total time: 1 hour
preparation time: 15 minutes
cooking/baking time: 10 + 30 minutes

Apple and sausages sounds like a good combination.
I would not have thought of the apple sausage combination. This has presence!
Ein wenig pervers schauen sie aber schon aus, oder? :-)
Du solltest das Original-Bild ansehen ;-)
I almost made this! It looks delicious and fun to eat!
I like the sound of the combination quite a bit! I think I’d rather cut the apples and sausage links into bite sized pieces and pan fry them, but I’ll bet it tasted great :)
Wow, I’ve never seen anything like this and I love it. I bet my kids would love it simply because it looks so fun to eat. The pork and apple combination is always a winner!
