Cooking sausages in the oven with vegetables is a quick dinner you can throw together in mere minutes. The bonus is that this Sausage Bake comes with gravy, and it’s all made in one pan!
Bonus: the gravy gets an extra flavour boost from all the sausage and vegetable drippings. This sausage recipe is a game changer!

Sausage Bake – One Pan Meal!
I have a rule about sausages. Sausages for dinner must always be accompanied with gravy – here’s how I make it on the stove: Sausages and Gravy.
So I’ve made a sausage, veggie and gravy dinner super easy by making it all in one pan.
Yes, you heard me right. This Sausage Bake is all made in ONE PAN. YES those golden brown sausages and roasted vegetables are sitting on a pool of gravy that was cooked right in the oven along with them!!

Cooking sausages in the oven
Cooking sausages in the oven is easy: just bake sausages at 180C/350F for 40 to 50 minutes until browned, turning halfway. It’s a terrific hands off, less mess alternative to pan frying.
The sausages will actually be cooked through at 30 minutes or so, but they won’t be nicely browned. Browning = flavour, and sausages are meant to be browned! Because sausages are enclosed in casing, they don’t dry out with a slightly longer cook time.
So keep them in the oven until they are nicely browned, as shown in the photos in this post!

How to cook Sausages in the oven with vegetables and gravy
Toss vegetables and potatoes in oil, salt, pepper and a touch of dried herbs of choice (I use thyme and oregano). Place in the pan, then top with sausages.
Whisk up the gravy – it’s made using the same ingredients required in a standard gravy that’s made on the stove. Stock, flour, butter, seasoning.
Except rather than cooking it on the stove, we pour it right into the pan so it bubbles away at the same time the sausages and vegetables are cooking.
By the time the sausages and vegetables are done, the gravy has thickened and is beautifully browned, just like when it’s made on the stove like in this Sausages and Gravy recipe!


Quick Dinner Idea – in one pan!
This is a super tasty and quick dinner to make, but I’m not applauding myself for creating a ground breaking recipe of any kind. Because when you think about it, this Sausage Bake is pretty much made like a stew. The sauce – gravy in this case – is thickened with flour, just like when making a stew.
And the vegetables and meat are cooked together in the sauce – except in this case, I deliberately put the sausages on top so they get nice and brown.

- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and pepper
Sausages
- 8 – 10 sausages (500-700g / 1-1.4lb) (Note 2)

- Place Vegetable ingredients in a large bowl. Toss well to coat.
- Add sausages and toss briefly.
- Transfer into roasting pan. Pan should be of a size so the vegetables are stacked about 2 deep – see photos and video. Rearrange sausages so they are on top.
Gravy
- In the same bowl used for the vegetables, add butter and flour. Whisk.
- Add a bit of beef broth and whisk, then whisk in remaining broth. (Don’t worry if you end up with some floating butter bits)
- Pour down the side of the pan (don’t pour over the sausages or veggies).
- Optional: Spray sausages with oil – browns slightly better (especially lean sausages).
Baking
- Bake 25 minutes. Turn sausages. Spray again with oil (optional) then bake for a further 25 minutes or until sausages are browned and potatoes are soft.
- Serve Sausages and Vegetables with Gravy on top, garnished with fresh thyme leaves if desired. (See notes for Gravy thickness adjustment)

Life of Dozer
The sight of a suitcase always distresses him. So I tried to trick him by piling up my luggage in a washing basket, planning to throw it into a suitcase at the last minute. Just so I wouldn’t have to deal with his forlorn face all night.
Didn’t work. He figured it out.😞

And the original photo from when I first published this recipe which was around Christmas: Dozer sulking. He really, really hates Christmas!

Great meal, really enjoyed it, thank you,
I come across this on FB, and had to try it out! Having my inlaws over for dinner and cant wait to see how it turns out tonight! Can’t WAIT to try some of your other recipes! I’ve been dying for something new to put on the menu and your page is my new favorite!
Fabulous easy dinner – wasn’t sure how the veg were going to be after roasting in the gravy but they were delicious! Gravy perfect consistency as well. Another awesome recipe – you are my go to each and every day 🙂
Thanks so much Deb, I’m so happy you loved it!
What kind of sausage do you use?
You can use any type of sausage you like! I’ve used thick pork sausages in mine here 😄
Made this tonight, it was fantastic. I would not change a thing. Mom and hubby loved it!
I’m so glad it was a hit!
Made this last night, was so simple and tasted better than the packets you buy in the shop, my husband was impressed too!! Thank you x
I have made many one sheet pan meals, but this is definitely my favorite. So easy and oh so good! I prepared exactly as written. Delish.
Set up will not let you print just the recipe!
This recipe was delish. I used chicken broth and Johnsonville Brawts. I like my vegetables smaller and I did not measure the herbs. You provided excellent guidance and I went with it. A definite keeper.
Great stuff Steven!! I’m so happy you loved it!
I made this dish tonight. It was delicious. I made the gravy using the beef broth as suggested. It was so simple to put together. I don’t have much an imagination to create my own dishes in the kitchen. But I can follow a recipe. I’m looking to trying more of your recipes.
Sounds like you’re nailing it in the kitchen Kathy!
Made this last night – super quick and easy, all my kids loved it! Will definitely make it again. Thanks!
Awesome Andrea!!
This is now my favourite recipe. Really tasty. Having it about once a week. Working my way through the other recipes. Recipe Tin is a godsend.
Thanks so much Jayne ❤️
I love this one it’s a favourite in our house!
Fantastic Kath!
Absolutely delicious recipe. Hubby’s on his second bowl. I used sweet Italian sausage. Wish I can post a picture for you. Wouldn’t change a thing!
Woot!! Fabulous!
Would bratwurst sausages work well with this?
I’ve made this a couple of times with quality beef as well as lamb sausages and it always turns out delicious.
Sausage n Potatoe bake is AMAZING!! I truly didn’t think the gravy would go together with everything else, both wife and son said out loud,OMG your going to make this again PLZ
Sounds good, and i’ll do the dishes tonight…………..no clean up !!!!!
Yes totally!!!! Enjoy Donna!
My kids dont like sausage much so i was wondering if i can use this same exact recipe with some kind of beef? If so what cut of beef would work best with this?
Hi Christina, maybe this recipe might be better suited: https://salesdock.info/beef-stew/%3C/a%3E ❤️
could i use a dutch oven or a slow cooker
I find you just don’t get the colour on the sausages when slow cooking unfortunately – N x
