On a large piece of waxed butcher paper spread out the sausage in the form of a rectangle about a half an inch thick

In a mixing bowl combine the remaining ingredients

Spread the apple mixture over the sausage rectangle, leaving an inch-wide border all the way around

Roll up the sausage jelly roll fashion

Begin by picking up one end of the waxed paper and folding it over until the roll gets started

The meat should fall away from the paper easily

This helps prevent the sausage from breaking apart

Pinch the ends together to seal

Place the roll in a greased pan and bake in a preheated 375F

oven for one hour.
