Steps:
- For the cranberry concord syrup: Combine the cranberries, grape jam, grape juice, sugar and orange zest in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries are very soft and easily break apart when pushed with a wooden spoon, about 20 minutes. Do not simmer too hard or the sauce may boil over.
- For the stuffing waffles: Meanwhile, preheat a waffle iron to medium high and spray the top and bottom with cooking spray.
- Break up the stuffing into small crumbles in a medium bowl, then mix in the milk and eggs.
- Pack the stuffing mixture evenly into the waffle iron, then close it and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and tent loosely with foil. Repeat with the remaining stuffing mixture.
- Serve the waffles topped with the warm cranberry concord syrup. Any leftover syrup can be refrigerated for 1 week.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly butter a 2- to 3-quart glass or ceramic baking dish.
- In a dry saute pan over medium heat, toast the walnuts until lightly golden brown, about 5 minutes. Cool and chop.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up any clumps with a wooden spoon, until brown, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and add the celery, onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 8 minutes. Stir in the cranberries and cook to just slightly plump them, about 1 minute, then remove from the heat.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the stuffing mix, sage, thyme and walnuts. In a large measuring cup, mix together the stock and egg and then add it to the mixing bowl along with the vegetable-sausage mixture. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper and stir gently to combine thoroughly.
- Transfer the stuffing mixture to the baking dish and bake until hot and golden brown on top, 30 to 40 minutes.
WAFFLE STUFFING
It was during the holidays I came up with this great stuffing recipe. I was trying many different recipes for many different birds and chops. I was making fried chicken one night, and I thought of chicken and waffles but I was still on this stuffing kick, so I decided to merge the two. By adding frozen waffles into my stuffing, the combination of sweet and savory was a huge hit with my fried chicken and has become one of my favorite side dishes.

SAVORY WAFFLES WITH ASPARAGUS, GRUYERE AND ONION
I took one of our family's favorite puff pastry recipes, which uses a similar mix of ingredients, and translated it to savory waffles. It's a change of pace from sweeter fare. Served with a ham steak and fried eggs, it makes a fabulous meal. Feel free to add maple syrup or a spicy glaze. -Leslie Ponce, Miami, Florida

Tips:
- Use stale bread: Stale bread is ideal for stuffing waffles because it absorbs more liquid and results in a crispier waffle.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the waffles tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Let the batter rest: Letting the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking allows the flavors to meld and results in a more evenly cooked waffle.
- Cook the waffles on a hot waffle iron: A hot waffle iron will help to create crispy waffles with a golden brown exterior.
- Serve the waffles immediately: Waffles are best served immediately after they are cooked. If you need to keep them warm, place them in a preheated oven at 200 degrees Fahrenheit.
