Number Of Ingredients 11

4 ounces fresh sourdough bread, trimmed of crust and cut into slices
1 piece peeled fresh ginger (1 1/2 inches), coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
2 small onions, coarsely chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
2 green apples (1 cored, peeled, and coarsely chopped; 1 whole)
2 large eggs, beaten
3 pounds ground turkey
4 teaspoons coarsely chopped fresh sage, plus leaves for garnish
2 teaspoons coarse salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Process bread in a food processor until coarse crumbs form. (You should have about 2 cups.) Transfer to a large bowl. Put ginger and garlic in the food processor; process until chopped. Add onion and chopped apple; puree. Transfer to the bowl with breadcrumbs. Add eggs, turkey, sage, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly with your hands.
  • Transfer to a 12 3/4-by-4 1/2-by-3 1/4-inch terrine mold. Peel and core remaining apple. Cut into 1/8-inch-thick rings. Arrange apples on top of loaf. Bake until bubbling around corners, about 30 minutes. Cover, and bake until apples are soft and translucent, about 15 minutes. Uncover; brush with maple syrup. Bake until loaf is no longer pink in center, about 10 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes before serving.

I'm not a big fan of turkey, but this meatloaf changed my mind! It was so moist and flavorful, and the apple and sage added a nice touch. I will definitely be making this again.

The flavors in this meatloaf were great, but the texture was a bit too dense for me. I think I might try using ground chicken or turkey next time.

This meatloaf was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I might add some more liquid next time, like maybe a cup of chicken broth.
