Baked Peaches & Sausage

This recipe comes to us courtesy of the Fredericksburg, Texas Oktoberfest committee.

1 pound mild bulk pork sausage 1 large can peach halves 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon 1/4 tsp. ground cloves

Pre-heat oven to 450°F. In a large skillet, cook sausage until browned, stirring to crumble. Drain off excess fat and set aside. Drain peach halves, reserving 3/4 cup juice. Place peaches, cut side up, in a well-greased glass baking dish and add reserved peach juice. Combine brown sugar and spices, stirring well. Sprinkle over peach halves. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle cooked sausage evenly over top. Return to oven and bake for15 more minutes.
