Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 °F (180 °C).

Mix together meat, shallots, egg and grated Canadian Cheddar. Add croutons and shape mixture into small sausages. Season to taste. Place in oven on a baking sheet and cook about 25 minutes.

Creamy Apple Sauce:

Place shallots in a saucepan with butter and sugar and cook until caramelised. Deglaze with cider and immediately add chicken broth. Poach apple quarters in broth and reduce liquid by half. Using a food processor or a blender, purée sauce until creamy. Strain, reserving liquid only, return to the saucepan, season to taste, add cream and reduce 5 more minutes.

Pour warm Creamy Apple Sauce over sausages and serve.
