Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausages and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the sausages and set aside.
While the sausages are cooking, peel and slice the onions into thin rings. Mince the garlic. Cut the apples into wedges, removing the cores but leaving the skin intact. Dice the potatoes into bite-sized pieces.
Using the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Add the onions and cook over medium heat until soft and golden, about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
In a large casserole dish, combine the browned sausages, cooked onions and garlic, apple wedges, and diced potatoes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken or vegetable stock, dried thyme, dried rosemary, whole-grain mustard, salt, and black pepper. Pour this mixture evenly over the ingredients in the casserole dish.
Cover the casserole dish with a lid or aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, remove the lid or foil, stir the ingredients gently, and continue to bake uncovered for another 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the liquid has slightly reduced.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your hearty Sausage, Apple, and Onion Casserole!
