Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

16 cups Bread (cubed into 1/2"-3/4" pieces)
3 medium Apples (take the core out and chop into 1/2" pieces)
1 lb Maple Sausage (ground sausage (Maple-flavored Jimmy Dean Sausage works great))
2 cups Onion (white or yellow onion works great)
2 cups Celery
1 cup Butter (salted )
2 tsp Poultry Seasoning
1/2 tsp Black Pepper
1 tablespoon Parsley
1 tsp Thyme (fresh, minced)
1 tsp Sage (fresh, minced)
1 tablespoon Salt
1 1/2- 2 cups Chicken Broth (Turkey Broth is fine too.)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees
  • Cut the bread into cubes, about 1/2" to 3/4" cubed pieces, and lay them on a baking sheet. ( I like to find bread in the marked down or day-old section of the bakery. You can use a mixture of sourdough, white and wheat bread.)
  • Lay the bread cubes on a large baking sheet and bake in a 250-degree oven for about an hour. You will want to toss them a few times in that hour to dry out all the bread.
  • Transfer the bread cubes to a very large bowl. Set aside while you make the rest of the stuffing.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cut up your onions and celery. 1/2" pieces work great. Put them in a large pot with the butter. Cook on medium heat, stirring frequently, until your celery and onions are tender and translucent, about 8 minutes.
  • Add the sausage and using the bottom of the spoon, break the sausage up into small chunks. Cook the mixture until the sausage is no longer pink. Add the diced apples and cook for an additional minute.
  • Add the minced Parsley, Thyme, and Sage, Salt, Pepper and 1 1/2" cups of the chicken broth.
  • Pour the chicken broth and celery mixture over the cubed bread. Gently fold the ingredients together. (The stuffing should be moist but no standing water. If it seems like it's a little dry, add the additional 1/2 cup of chicken broth.)
  • Spray a 9 by 13" baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Spread the stuffing evenly on the baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes, stirring gently every 15 minutes. When the stuffing is done, the top should be lightly brown.
  • Serve Immediately. Stuffing is best warm and fresh but will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Add the onion, apple, celery, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until the vegetables get soft, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and parsley and bring to a boil.
  • Pour the vegetable mixture over the stuffing cubes and toss until evenly moistened. Mix in the walnuts and eggs. Loosely pack the dressing in the prepared pan and cook uncovered until the top forms a crust, about 40 minutes. Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of turkey pan drippings or melted butter over the top. Cook until the top is crisp and golden, about 20 minutes more.

SAUSAGE AND APPLE STUFFING CASSEROLE



Sausage and Apple Stuffing Casserole image

You may use fresh sliced mushrooms that have been sauteed in butter in place of canned. If you are planning to serve more than 8 people then prepare two separate recipes and bake in two dishes --- I use all of a 400 gram French bread that amount works perfectly for this recipe --- add in chopped cooked carrots or peas to the stuffing mixture if desired, I have even added in cooked chopped bacon along with the sausage! this is a fantastic stuffing casserole!

Tips:

- For the best flavor, use a variety of sausages, such as pork, chicken, and turkey. - If you don't have any fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs instead. Just use about 1/3 of the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh herbs. - If you don't have any white wine, you can use chicken broth instead. - Be sure to cook the sausage and apples until they are browned. This will help to bring out their flavor. - Stuff the casserole dish tightly with the stuffing mixture. This will help to prevent it from falling apart when you bake it. - Bake the casserole until it is golden brown and bubbly. This should take about 45 minutes. - Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.
