Directions: |
Directions:In a large skillet over medium heat cook the sausage, breaking up with the side of a spoon until no pink remains. (You can add at least 1 tablespoon of extra sage to this while it is browning.) Remove from heat and drain on paper towels. In a large bowl mix thoroughly the sausage, bread crumbs, celery, onion, apples, walnuts, caraway seeds, salt and pepper. Drizzle eggs and melted butter over the top and toss to combine. Slowly add the broth and milk, a little at each at a time until the mixture is very moist (this is tricky part as everyone likes their stuffing with different amounts of moisture). It is good idea to add the milk and broth 1/2 cup at a time, stir and repeat until the stuffing seems just right for your taste.
Bake in 9x13 baking pan at 350º for at least 1 hour or until done in the center. Cover for the first half hour and uncovered for the second half. This makes a really full 9x 13 pan. You may have leftovers. |
