Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the bratwurst and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove brats and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and apples. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until they begin to soften.
4. Deglaze the skillet by pouring in the apple ale, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
5. Return the brats to the skillet. Add sauerkraut, brown sugar, and caraway seeds. Season with salt and pepper.
6. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover the skillet and transfer it to the preheated oven.
7. Braise in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the brats are cooked through.
8. Serve hot with your choice of sides.
Variations & Tips
This recipe is quite adaptable! If you’re not a fan of sweetness, you can skip the apples and substitute the apple ale with a darker beer for a deeper, more savory flavor. If you like a bit of spice, add some crushed red pepper flakes when cooking the onions. For those who enjoy a creamier dish, stir a few spoonfuls of sour cream into the sauerkraut before baking.
