A sweet and savory appetizer perfect for parties! These Slow Cooker Apple Kielbasa Bites bring together the rich flavor of kielbasa, the sweetness of apples, and the tang of Dijon for a crowd-pleasing snack.
Ingredients
- 1 pound kielbasa sausage cut into 1/2-inch slices
- 2 apples cored and chopped into small pieces
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup apple cider or apple juice
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- fresh parsley for garnish, optional
Instructions
- Lightly coat the slow cooker with cooking spray to prevent sticking, or use a slow cooker liner for easier cleanup.
- Slice the kielbasa into 1/2-inch thick pieces and distribute them evenly at the bottom of the slow cooker.
- In a mixing bowl, combine chopped apples, brown sugar, apple cider, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
- Pour the apple mixture over the kielbasa, covering it evenly. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours, or on high for 1-2 hours.
- Stir the kielbasa bites gently to coat with the sauce and ensure everything is heated through. Optionally, garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.
- If serving at an event, keep the slow cooker on the 'keep warm' setting for continued enjoyment.
Notes
For extra flavor, try adding a splash of apple cider vinegar for a tangy kick.
