Apple and Sage and Turkey Meatloaf
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine apples, onion, bread crumbs and milk in a large bowl and let stand 5 minutes to soften bread crumbs. Add turkey, sage, egg, salt and pepper and mix until combined. Scrape the mixture onto the baking sheet. With water-moistened hands, shape the mixture into a loaf about 10 inches long and 5 inches wide. Spread top of loaf with 1/4 cup of the tomato sauce, if using, and bake until meatloaf is lightly browned and cooked through (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should register 165°F), 50 to 60 minutes.
Let meatloaf sit 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve with warmed tomato sauce if desired.
