directions
In a skillet, cook the sausage and onion until sausage is no longer pink and onion is tender. Remove from skillet with a slotted spoon; set aside.
Reserve 2 Tbsp drippings in skillet. Add butter, apple, thyme, sage and pepper to drippings; cook over low heat for 5 minutes or until apple is tender. Remove from the heat; stir in sausage and onion mixture. Set aside.
In a heavy saucepan, bring 2 cups water to a boil. Combine cornmeal, salt and remaining water; stir into boiling water. Return to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the sausage mixture. Pour into a greased 8x4x2-inch loaf pan. Cover and chill 8 hours or overnight.
Slice 1/2 inch thick. Sprinkle both sides of slices with flour. Fry in a buttered skillet until browned on each side. Serve with syrup.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
