How to render {{#each}} on server using meteorhacks:ssr

help
1

I have this html in the private folder

<head>
    <link href="order-confirmation.css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
    <h4>Hello {{firstName}} {{lastName}},</h4>
    <h4>Shipping Address:</h4>
    <div>
             {{#each addressView}}
             <b>{{first_name}} {{last_name}}</b>
             <br>
             {{address_line_1}}
             <br>
             {{address_line_2}}
             <br>
             {{city}}, {{state}} {{zip}}
             <br>
             {{country}}
             <br>
             {{/each}}
           </span>
        <br>
</body>

Here’s the js in server

SSR.compileTemplate('orderConfirmationEmail', Assets.getText('order-confirmation.html'));

Template.orderConfirmationEmail.helpers({
  addressView() {
    return Address.find({
      owner: this.userId,
    }, {
      sort: {
        added_on: -1,
      },
      limit: 1,
    });
  },
});

. . . 

Meteor.methods({
  checkout(shipping) {
    const customerText = SSR.render('orderConfirmationEmail', {
      firstName: Meteor.user().profile.firstName,
      lastName: Meteor.user().profile.lastName,
    });

    this.unblock();

    // Send the e-mail
    Email.send({
      to: 'xxx',
      cc: 'xxx',
      subject: 'Test',
      html: customerText,
    });
    console.log('Success');
  },
});

The {{firstName}} and {{lastName}} get rendered correctly, but the addressView doesn’t.
Even tried this

const customerText = SSR.render('orderConfirmationEmail', {
      firstName: Meteor.user().profile.firstName,
      lastName: Meteor.user().profile.lastName,
      addressView: Address.find({
        owner: this.userId,
      }, {
        sort: {
          added_on: -1,
        },
        limit: 1,
      }),
  });

Thanks in advance

owner: Meteor.userId() worked
