This meal is easy to make and has a delicious flavor that makes it popular at parties, potlucks, or even as a snack for movie nights.

When it comes to making Slow Cooker Apple Kielbasa Bites, there are many ways to serve them. They can be served alone with toothpicks for a quick snack, or as part of a bigger selection of food. They go great with other snacks and can be served with a creamy dip or a cheese platter. For a heartier meal, you can serve them with a simple green salad, cooked vegetables, or on top of mashed potatoes or rice to enjoy the tasty sauce. To add a fun twist, try serving these small pieces of kielbasa with a cup of hot apple cider. This can enhance the apple taste and make the event extra memorable.

Recipe: Easy Slow Cooker Apple Sausage Bites

Ingredients:

– 1 pound of kielbasa sausage, sliced into pieces that are 1/2 inch thick.

– 2 apples, remove the core and cut into small pieces.

– 1/2 cup of brown sugar

– 1/2 cup of apple cider or apple juice

– 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard

– 1 teaspoon of powdered garlic

– Add salt and pepper as desired.

– Fresh parsley to decorate (if desired)

Instructions:

Start by collecting all the items you need and getting your slow cooker ready by spraying it with cooking spray or using a liner for easy cleaning.

Put the cut kielbasa into the slow cooker, spreading them out evenly on the bottom.

3. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the chopped apples, brown sugar, apple juice, mustard, and garlic powder. Season with salt and pepper according to your preference. Stir thoroughly to make sure all ingredients are completely mixed.

4. Pour the apple and spice mix over the kielbasa in the slow cooker, making sure all the sausage pieces are covered.

Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low for 3-4 hours or on high for 1-2 hours until the sausage is heated and the flavors mix well.

6. When the cooking time is finished, gently mix the kielbasa bites with the sauce.

If you want, you can decorate with some chopped parsley to give it a pop of color and fresh taste right before serving.

Enjoy your Slow Cooker Apple Kielbasa Bites hot by placing them on a serving tray with toothpicks or serving them over your favorite side dish.

Make sure to keep them warm if you are serving them at a party, as they taste best when the sausage is juicy and the pieces of apple are soft.

Enjoy!
