SUNNY'S EASY APPLE STUFFING LOAF



Sunny's Easy Apple Stuffing Loaf image

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
4 tablespoons salted butter
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup chopped onions
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
10 fresh sage leaves, finely chopped
2 scallions (white and green parts), finely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
One 12-ounce bag stuffing mix (or cubes), such as Pepperidge Farm (use original flavor)
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
1/2 cup lightly packed chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup dried cranberries
2 apples, diced (I like Honeycrisp)
2 1/2 to 3 cups turkey or chicken stock

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat the bottom and sides of a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a large skillet, add the butter and melt over medium heat. Add the celery, onions, thyme, sage, scallions, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook until the onions and celery are tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds to a minute. Transfer the vegetables to a large mixing bowl.
  • To the bowl of veggies, add the stuffing mix, walnuts, parsley, cranberries and apples and mix well. Add 2 1/2 cups of the stock, tossing well to coat and soak all of the cubes. If more stock is needed, add it splash by splash. There should be no liquid pooling in the bottom of your bowl.
  • Scoop the stuffing mixture into the prepared loaf pan and press down firmly to pack it. Cover the pan with foil, place on a sheet pan and bake for 1 hour. Increase the oven temperature to 400 degrees F. Remove the foil and continue to bake until golden brown on top, 25 to 30 more minutes.
  • Dig in warm or allow to cool slightly and turn out onto a plate to serve. Or allow to cool completely, then cut into 1-inch-thick slices with a serrated knife and toast in a pan with butter.

MEATLOAF STUFFING



Meatloaf Stuffing image

I get bored of regular red sauce meatloaf. I've combined my version of holiday stuffing and turned it into a meatloaf. This alternative is delicious and full of veggies and apples. Instead of using bread crumbs, crackers, or oatmeal, try Pepperidge Farm® Herb Seasoned Stuffing! Perfect for fall-winter comfort-style dinners. Pairs well with traditional mashed potatoes and dinner rolls. After experimenting several times over the course of a few years, I've come up with what I call 'Meatloaf Stuffing'. You can use ground beef if meatloaf meat is not available. Enjoy!
