Beanie Weenies
Description
This simple recipe involves placing little smokies in a baking dish and covering them with brown sugar and pineapple juice. Baking at 350°F for 45-50 minutes melts the sugar to form a syrupy, sticky glaze that coats the sausages.
Stirring every 10-15 minutes encourages even cooking and glazing. The combination of brown sugar and pineapple juice balances sweetness with a tropical fruit note that complements the smokiness of the sausages.
Beanie Weenies are typically served warm as a casual appetizer or party snack. The rich glaze clings to the sausages, making them easy to pick up and enjoy in social settings.
Leftovers store well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, making it convenient for reheating and snacking later.
