Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. This will give your stuffing a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
  • Toast the pecans. This will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy. To toast pecans, spread them on a baking sheet and bake them at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-7 minutes, or until they are fragrant and lightly browned.
  • Don't overstuff the turkey. This will make it difficult for the stuffing to cook evenly. Aim for about 3/4 cup of stuffing per pound of turkey.
  • Bake the stuffing uncovered. This will help it to brown and crisp up on top.
  • Let the stuffing cool slightly before serving. This will make it easier to handle and will help to prevent it from falling apart.
