This hearty roasted bratwurst with sauerkraut and apples is a sophisticated take on classic German comfort food. The combination of savoury smoked sausages and the natural sweetness of Golden Delicious apples creates a beautifully balanced flavour profile, while the caraway and fennel seeds add a traditional aromatic depth. As the ingredients roast together, the juices mingle with the dry vermouth and beef broth to create a rich, concentrated sauce that perfectly complements the tangy sauerkraut.
Ideal for a high-protein dinner, this one-pan dish is both nutritious and deeply satisfying. Using fresh sauerkraut provides a crisp texture and bright acidity that cuts through the richness of the pork sausages. It is a wonderful choice for a midweek meal or a relaxed weekend lunch, especially when served alongside dark pumpernickel or crusty whole-grain bread to soak up the delicious roasting juices.

How to make Bratwurst with Apples, Onion, and Sauerkraut
Position rack in centre of oven; preheat to 204°C. 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.
