Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Place the sausages evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet. If desired, lightly brush the sausages with olive oil to enhance browning.
Season the sausages with a small pinch of salt and ground black pepper, if preferred.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping the sausages halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
Check for doneness by using a meat thermometer—the internal temperature of the sausages should reach 160°F (71°C) for pork or beef sausages, or 165°F (74°C) for chicken sausages.
Remove the sausages from the oven and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve hot with your favorite side dishes like mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
