This brats with apples and onions recipe makes a very hearty meal that's good in the autumn or winter. It has lots of flavor and is very much a comforting meal after a long day in the cold. It pairs well with coleslaw.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 bratwurst
2 apple, cored and sliced
1 sweet onion, sliced
2 (12 fluid ounce) cans or bottles beer
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

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 onion softens, about 6 minutes. Return bratwurst to the skillet, nestling them into the onion mixture. Pour beer over sausages; season with salt and pepper.
Bring beer to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until 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).

Tips

Try replacing the beer with hard cider for a fruitier flavor.
