Moms Sausage And Cranberry Stuffing Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275° F. Spread the Italian loaf of bread evenly on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes, stirring the bread cubes several times during baking.
• In a large Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium high heat until foaming, but do not allow the butter to brown, about 2 minutes. Add the sausages and cook until just a few bits of pink remain, about 8 minutes, breaking it up into fine pieces while cooking. Add the onion, celery, garlic, sage, rosemary, thyme, poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. Stir frequently until vegetables are softened, about 7 minutes. Remove from heat and add 2 cups of chicken stock, orange zest and orange juice.
• Whisk remaining chicken stock, eggs and parsley in medium bowl until combined. Stirring constantly, slowly add the sausage mixture into the egg mixture. Gently fold in the Italian bread cubes, Stuffing mix, and dried cranberries until evenly mixed.
• Transfer the stuffing to a buttered 9x13" baking dish and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for about 45 minutes or until an instant read thermometer reads 150°F. Remove foil and continue baking until crispy golden brown on top, about 10 minutes more. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with additional parsley if desired.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cook the onion in the butter until soft but not browned. Add the breadcrumbs and stir so they soak up all the excess butter and fat. Let the mixture cool. Tip into a bowl with the sausagemeat, apple, cranberries, pistachios, sage and mixed spice. Mix well, then roll into balls. You can now cover and chill for up to a day before cooking.
• To cook, place in a roasting tin and bake for 40 mins, turning a few times, or until browned all over. Add the bay leaves, if using, for the final ten minutes of cooking.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray. Place bread cubes in baking dish.
• In 10-inch skillet, cook sausage, celery and onion over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sausage is no longer pink and vegetables are tender; drain.
• Add sausage mixture, sage and cranberries to baking dish; mix lightly with bread cubes. In medium bowl, beat broth, milk and eggs with fork or wire whisk until well mixed; pour over bread and stir gently to soak all bread cubes in milk mixture. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours but no longer than 12 hours.
• Bake uncovered 35 to 40 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean and top is golden brown.
