Applesauce Meatloaf

This recipe was given to me by my Mom a number of years ago. It tastes scrumptious either hot or cold. I like to serve it with mashed potatoes and green or yellow beans.

Thank you for a great recipe. I wasn't sure what to make of it when I saw the applesauce but it tastes fantastic. I didn't have any apples or cloves for the topping so I just left them out. This may now be my new top meatloaf recipe. Too bad there wasn't any left for sandwiches the next day!! (because hubby ate it all!)Reply

We enjoyed this meatloaf; it had rather a German flavor to it. I used sweetened applesauce, and it was a little too sweet; next time I'll go with unsweetened. (My husband loved it, though.) It did end up having a lot of fat and liquid cook out; I had to drain it at the end. Next time I'll drain it partway through so it doesn't get so mushy and overflow the pan and make a mess of the oven. But the taste was wonderful.Reply
