Meatloaf with walnuts

Ingredients for 6 servings:

• 1 kg bratwurst meat (pork bratwurst meat)
• 1 apple (Boskop or Cox Orange)
• 75 g walnuts, finely chopped
• ⅛ liter sweet cream or double cream
• 1 egg(s)
• 1 pinch of ground cinnamon
• Pepper, black from the mill
• 1 pinch of salt

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Wash, quarter, and core the apples. Then grate them, including the skin, into the sausage meat mixture. Mix in immediately. Add the walnuts, cream or double cream, egg, cinnamon, pepper, and salt, and knead well. Pour the mixture into a loaf pan or aluminum tray lined with greaseproof paper. Press firmly into the pan to prevent any hollows. Chill for 1 hour before baking. If desired, score a design into the surface with a knife. Bake on the lowest rack in an oven preheated to 180°C (350°F) for about 45-60 minutes. Toothpick test: If the juices run clear, the meatloaf is cooked through. Then let stand for 10 minutes in the switched-off, slightly open oven. Drain the liquid and remove the meatloaf from the pan. Slice and serve with potatoes and a mixed salad. You can keep the unbaked meatloaf in the refrigerator for half a day. This means it’s easy to prepare when guests come over.
