Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 lb kielbasa sausage
  • 1/4 cup yellow mustard
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking dish to prepare it for the kielbasa bites.
  2. Slice Kielbasa: Slice the kielbasa crosswise into bite-sized pieces, making sure not to cut all the way through so each piece forms a pocket to hold the sauce.
  3. Mix Glaze: In a small bowl, combine the yellow mustard, honey, and smoked paprika, stirring until the mixture is smooth and evenly blended.
  4. Brush Kielbasa: Generously brush the honey mustard glaze over each kielbasa slice, ensuring the pockets are well coated with the flavorful mixture.
  5. Bake: Arrange the kielbasa bites in the prepared baking dish in a single layer and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the sausage is heated through and the glaze turns golden brown.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving warm as an appetizer or snack.

Notes

  • You can use spicy or smoked kielbasa depending on your flavor preference.
  • For an extra kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the glaze.
  • These bites are delicious served with a side of ranch or sour cream for dipping.
  • Make sure not to cut all the way through the sausage to keep the pieces intact during baking.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven.
