Autumn Apple Meatloaf With Apple Glaze

By peridot728

I'm not a fan of meatloaf, but this is pretty good.

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 lb ground pork
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 1 small onion, minced
• 1 small tart apple, peeled, cored and finely chopped
• 2 cups soft breadcrumbs
• salt and pepper
• 1 cup applesauce
• 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar

Preparation

Step 1

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 2 In a large bowl, combine beef, pork, beaten egg, minced onion, finely chopped apple, bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Blend together well w/ clean hands. 3 Shape mixture into loaf and place in a baking dish. 4 Mix together all the apple glaze ingredients in a seperate bowl and set aside. 5 Bake meatloaf 350 degrees for 45 minutes. After 30 minutes, evenly pour the apple glaze over top of the meatloaf. 6 Return to 350 degree oven and continue to cook for about another 45 minutes -- basting with your glaze every 15 minutes, or until done and no longer pink.
