SAUSAGE AND APPLE STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Butter a shallow 3-quart baking dish. Cut or tear the bread into bite-size pieces. Divide between 2 rimmed baking sheets and spread into a single layer. Bake until slightly dry and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool completely.
• Meanwhile, cook the sausage in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, breaking up the meat into small pieces with a wooden spoon until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes Transfer the sausage to a plate using a slotted spoon. Add the cranberries, thyme, apple, onion, celery, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the drippings in the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and parsley and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and pour into a large bowl.
• Add the toasted bread to the onion mixture and toss until evenly moistened. Stir in the egg and cooked sausage. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and evenly spread without packing the stuffing down too much. Bake until the top is crusty, about 40 minutes. Drizzle the melted butter over the top and continue to bake until the top is crisp and golden, about 20 minutes more. Sprinkle the top with some chopped parsley.

BUTTERY BEER BREAD STUFFING WITH SAUSAGE, APPLE, & MUSHROOM RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Buttery Beer Bread: Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Using a wooden spoon stir the beer into the dry ingredients until just mixed. Pour half of the melted butter into the bottom of the pan. Spoon the batter into the pan and top with the rest of the melted butter. Bake for 50-60 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Stuffing: Preheat oven to 275°F. Place bread in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Bake until bread is completely dried, about 50 minutes total. Stir occasionally and rotate the pan throughout baking. Remove bread from oven and allow to cool. Increase heat to 350°F. In a large dutch oven, melt butter and olive oil. Once melted, add sausage, breaking into small pieces and cook until nearly all the pink is gone. Add onion, celery, mushroom, apple and garlic. Season with rosemary, oregano, sage, ginger, thyme and a generous sprinkle of salt and pepper. Stir often and cook until soft, about 10 minutes. After 10 minutes taste and add more salt, pepper or other spice as needed. In a large bowl combine 2 cups broth and 3 eggs, whisking until combined. Set aside. Remove dutch oven from heat and slowly add in egg/broth mixture while stirring sausage mixture. Gently fold in bread cubes and stir until everything is evenly distributed. Transfer to a 9x13 inch baking dish or a 10x14 oval baking dish. If you would like your stuffing to be a bit more moist, add 1/2 cup to 1 cup more broth over the top of the dish. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil after 30 minutes and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the top is golden and crisp and the liquid in the bottom has been absorbed.

SAGE, SAUSAGE AND APPLE DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Put the stuffing cubes in a large bowl and set aside. Butter a 3-quart casserole dish.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and break it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until it loses most of its pink color, but not so much that it's dry, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage and pan drippings to the stuffing cubes. Melt the remaining butter in the pan. 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.

CORNBREAD DRESSING WITH SAUSAGE, APPLES AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Allow the cubed bread to sit out on cookie sheets for several hours or overnight, until completely dried out.
• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• Wash the mushrooms thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels. Toss in a bowl with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt. The mushrooms will be very coated, but that's good! Divide the mushrooms between 2 cookie sheets and roast in the upper half of the oven for at least 20 minutes, stirring once halfway through roasting. Remove from the oven when the mushrooms are deep brown. Set aside. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
• In a large skillet, crumble and brown the sausage over medium-high heat. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside. Pour off any excess grease and, without cleaning the skillet, add in the diced onions and brown for 5 minutes. Increase the heat to high and add the diced apples, brown sugar and some salt. Cook until deep golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Decrease the heat to medium and pour in the wine (be careful if you're using an open flame). Stir and cook to reduce the liquid by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the apple/onion mixture into a bowl and set aside.
• Return the skillet to medium heat (again, without washing) and add the chicken broth, rosemary, sage, thyme, turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Heat for a few minutes, and then set aside.
• Add the bread to a large bowl, and then add the browned sausage, mushrooms and apple/onion mixture (and any juice that might have accumulated). Next, add the broth mixture gradually as you toss the ingredients, being prepared to not use all of the liquid according to your taste.
• Check the seasonings at the end and add in minced parsley. Pour into a large baking dish (I used an iron skillet) and bake until golden brown on top, 20 to 25 minutes. (Or you can stuff the turkey if you're into that kind of thing.)
• Delicious!

MUSHROOM AND SAUSAGE STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Coat a large wide pot with olive oil and toss in the celery and onions. Season with salt and cook the veggies over medium-high heat until soft and very aromatic, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add the sausage and cook, breaking it into really small pieces with a metal spoon or spatula, until it's really brown and yummy, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Add the white wine and cook until it has evaporated by half. (The mix will be pretty soupy, and that's okay.)
• Combine the bread with the sausage mixture in a large bowl. Toss in the walnuts and sage and pour about half the chicken stock into the bowl. Using your hands, work to combine everything well -- really get in there and squish it up; it's fun! Add the remaining stock as needed to create a really moist mix. Taste and season with salt, if needed.
• Transfer the mixture to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and cover with foil. Bake until the stuffing is hot all the way through, about 30 minutes, then remove the foil and bake to brown the top, another 15 minutes.

MUSHROOM/SAUSAGE STUFFING

Steps:

• Brown sausage, add ½ butter, celery, onions, and mushrooms.
• Sauté over low - med heat.
• add remainder of butter, and ½ can of chicken broth.
• Add in a separate bowl, or pan, the breadcrumbs.
• Season with salt, pepper, and sage.
• When vegetables are tender, add to breadcrumbs, and mix well, add remaining broth as needed to sufficiently moisten stuffing.

MUSHROOM STUFFING WITH SAUSAGE, APPLE, AND WALNUTS

Steps:

• Sprinkle each eggplant slice generously with salt and sandwich between paper towels. Place a heavy pan on top of the eggplant slices and set aside for 30 minutes.
• Combine onion, walnuts, celery, and garlic in a bowl. Mix all mushrooms in a second bowl.
• Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium-low heat. Squeeze sausage meat without the skin into meatball-sized segments and add to the skillet. Cook in its own juices until browned, breaking up sausage into bite-sized pieces while cooking, 3 to 5 minutes. Add onion mixture to the skillet and saute until soft, about 10 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Meanwhile, rinse off salt and any accumulated liquid from eggplant slices. Don't be afraid to twist and squeeze the slices. Dice eggplant and add with mushrooms to the skillet. Continue to cook stuffing over low heat until mushrooms have softened, about 10 minutes. Add chicken stock, red wine, and 1 tablespoon butter. Season with oregano, rosemary, sage, salt, and pepper. Mix in diced apples. Place remaining butter in thin pats on top of the stuffing and transfer skillet to the preheated oven.
• Cook stuffing until browned on the top, about 15 minutes.
