Steps:
- Place the water, butter, and raisins into a saucepan; bring to a boil. Remove from the heat, stir in the stuffing mix, cover, and let stand until the stuffing mixture absorbs the liquid, about 5 minutes. Stir 1 tablespoon of poultry seasoning and the apple lightly into the stuffing. Allow the stuffing mixture to cool.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a rack into a roasting pan.
- Carefully remove the turkey breast skin in one piece without tearing the skin, and set aside. Bone the turkey breast (see notes) keeping the meat in one piece but removing the strip of cartilage and gristle between the two breast halves, if necessary. Pull the two tenderloin sections outward from the main part of the breast, keeping them attached, to expand the boneless piece of turkey into a roughly square-shaped piece of meat. Sprinkle the inside of the breast with salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of poultry seasoning.
- Spread the stuffing mixture all over the inside of the breast meat piece, and firmly roll the stuffed breast into a compact roll. Spread the reserved turkey skin out, and place the stuffed roll in the middle of the skin. Pull and roll the skin over the stuffed meat, and tie the stuffed roll together with cooking twine. Place the roll onto the roasting rack with the seam side down.
- Roast the stuffed breast in the preheated oven until the skin is golden brown, the meat is no longer pink inside, and the temperature of the roll, measured at the thickest part, reads 170 degrees F (75 degrees C), 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Allow the roast to stand covered with a tent of aluminum foil for at least 10 minutes before removing the twine for slicing.

Tips:
- Use a variety of apples for a more complex flavor. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn are all good choices.
- If you don't have time to toast the almonds, you can use slivered almonds instead.
- Add a cup of chopped celery or carrots for a more savory stuffing.
- If you want a sweeter stuffing, add a cup of dried cranberries or cherries.
- Be sure to use fresh herbs for the best flavor. Sage, rosemary, and thyme are all good choices.
- Don't overstuff the turkey. You want the stuffing to be cooked through, but not so dense that it's hard to eat.
- If you're making the stuffing ahead of time, be sure to store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days before baking.

Apple almond raisin stuffing is a classic holiday side dish that's sure to please everyone at the table. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a delicious and festive stuffing recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
