Variations:
Swap the apple sauce for onion chutney or cranberry sauce.
Try different flavours of dry stuffing mixes. There are usually lots about around Christmas!
Sprinkle poppy or sesame seeds on top before baking. They will stick easily to the egg glaze.
Make them vegetarian by replacing the sausage meat with a vegetarian sausage.
