Awesome Sausage, Apple, and Cranberry Stuffing

Turkey

This apple sausage stuffing is fantastic for Thanksgiving! It is very flavorful and fresh-tasting. This recipe will stuff a 10-pound turkey (which serves six) plus extra. I replaced the usual pork sausage with much healthier turkey sausage.

Ingredients

3 ¾ cups cubed white bread
1 ½ cups cubed whole wheat bread
1 pound ground turkey sausage
1 cup chopped onion
¾ cup chopped celery
2 ½ teaspoons dried sage
1 ½ teaspoons dried rosemary
½ teaspoon dried thyme
1 Golden Delicious apple, cored and chopped
¾ cup dried cranberries or other dried fruit
⅓ cup minced fresh parsley
1 cooked turkey liver, finely chopped
¾ cup turkey stock
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Description

Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Spread white and whole wheat bread cubes in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until evenly toasted, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer toasted bread cubes to a large bowl.
Cook sausage and onions in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring and breaking up lumps, until evenly browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Add celery, sage, rosemary, and thyme; cook and stir until flavors blend, about 2 minutes.
Pour sausage mixture over bread in bowl. Mix in chopped apple, dried cranberries, parsley, and liver. Drizzle with turkey stock and melted butter; mix lightly.
Allow stuffing to cool completely before loosely stuffing a turkey.
