These sweet and salty glazed sausage and pineapple appetizers are the perfect Summer appetizer. They are easy to make and quite delicious.
These sausage pineapple appetizers bites are guaranteed to be the hit of any party.
If your house is anything like mine, then Summer is all about fruit for breakfast, lunch, snack, dinner and desserts. Pretty much at all meals and times of the day.
We are all obsessed with all kinds of fruits, but there is something about pineapples during the warm Summer months that delights our taste buds.
During the Summer months, I’m always on the look out for quick and easy Summer appetizers.
The idea of turning the oven on during the Summer months sounds dreadful. That is why we love these pineapple bites.
We highlighted this easy appetizers along with some other finger foods in our Easy Fall Appetizer along with our Easy Super Bowl Appetizers .
Ingredients For Pineapple Appetizers
Teriyaki Glaze
- 1 cup Teriyaki Sauce
- 1/4 cup Corn Starch
- 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
Pineapple Bites
- 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- A package Kielbasa Sausage
- 1 Pineapple
How to Make this Summer Appetizer
In a small bowl, mix together the Teriyaki sauce, corn starch and brown sugar.
Once the corn starch is fully combined, pour the sauce into a small sauce pan and heat over low to medium heat until it starts to thicken. Make sure to keep an eye on it, as it will thicken pretty fast.
Next, cut up your kielbasa into 1/2 inch pieces.
Add olive oil to a saute pan along with the cut up sausage.
Saute sausage till ends are crispy – approximately 5 minutes.
Cut up pineapple into small cubes 1/2 inch thick.
Grab a toothpick and assemble placing the pineapple on first and then the cooked kielbasa.
Drizzle over the glaze and serve.
Can You Make These Ahead of Time
Cooking the sausage before can be done and should be stored in an airtight container. I would hold off on making the glaze and cutting up the pineapple till right before serving.
Before serving, heat the sausage back up and then add to toothpick and drizzle with glaze.
Happy Summer!
