This Smoked Sausage & Apples Sheet Pan Dinner has all the lovely flavors of fall in a complete meal that’s cooked all on one sheet pan for an easy weeknight dinner!
Why We Love It
This delicious sheet pan dinner is a variation of my Sausage & Potatoes Sheet Pan. I added some carrots and diced apples to the mix and sweetened up the sauce for a sweet and smoky fall dinner. It’s comfort food at its finest.
There are big chunks of smoked sausage, carrots, onion, potato, and apples coated in a mix of maple and dijon with the flavors of sage and thyme. It truly is the perfect cozy night-in kind of meal. With or without the sausage, it would also make a great Thanksgiving side dish!
Sheet pan dinners are crazy easy – just chop up the meat and veggies, toss them in some kind of seasoning or sauce, and throw them on a baking sheet. Most take anywhere from 30-60 minutes to cook, and you can serve with a side of rice or noodles. Dinner is done!
How To Make It
- Chop all the ingredients into bite-sized pieces.
- Toss with the sauce.
- Arrange on rimmed baking sheets.
- Bake, stirring a few times to ensure even cooking.
FAQs
Cool completely, then store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or in a skillet on the stovetop.
This meal is great for meal prep! It will make about 6-8 servings, so feed your family, then portion the rest out for a few lunches for the week.
Sure, feel free to improvise and choose vegetables that you have on hand.

This was delicious, fast and easy, as advertised. I happened to be out of maple syrup and used honey instead, which worked well, but I can’t wait to try it again already, this time with syrup! You are right, the cooked apples add a touch a deliciousness to simple autumn veggies. I also loved that there was basically no clean up involved. Thank you for this great recipe!
I have used honey as well. My family LOVES this recipe! So glad you enjoyed it!
