  • Total Time: 35 mins
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb kielbasa sausage
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup BBQ sauce
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Make thin crosswise cuts along the kielbasa, about 1/4-inch apart, without cutting all the way through.
  3. In a bowl, mix maple syrup, BBQ sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper.
  4. Brush the glaze over the kielbasa, making sure it gets into the cuts.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, basting halfway, until caramelized and crisp.
  6. Slice into bite-sized pieces and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use precooked kielbasa for best results.
  • Adjust sweetness by reducing maple syrup if preferred.
  • For extra crispiness, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end.
