• Meanwhile, cook the sausage in a medium skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer the cooked sausage to a plate.
• Add the onion to the skillet, and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until beginning to soften, 2-3 minutes. Add the celery and apple, and continue to cook, until tender and just golden, another 2-3 minutes.
• Add the cooked sausage, onion, celery, and apple to the cornbread mixture, followed by the spices, and stir to combine. Slowly pour the broth or water over top, and stir until evenly moistened. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Pour the dressing into the prepared baking dish, and spread into an even layer.
• at this point, simply cover tightly with aluminum foil, and refrigerate for up to two days before baking.
• cover with aluminum foil, and bake until cooked through, about 35 minutes.⁴ Remove the foil, and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the top is crisp and golden. Serve warm.

CORNBREAD AND SAUSAGE DRESSING

Steps:

• Spread the cornbread and French bread cubes out onto sheet pans. Let them dry out for several hours and up to overnight. You want them to be crisp/stale.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Crumble the sausage into the skillet and brown until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the sausage into a large bowl and drain half the grease. Lower the temperature under the skillet to medium. Melt the butter, then add the celery, rosemary, carrots and onions. Cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock, thyme, sage and turmeric and bring to a boil.
• Add the bread to the bowl with the sausage and toss to combine. Gradually ladle the broth mixture into the bread and sausage mixture, tossing lightly as you go, until completely combined. Taste and season with salt. If the mixture needs more moisture, you can add more stock as desired. Stir in the parsley and transfer to a baking dish. Bake until golden on top, 20 to 25 minutes.

SAUSAGE AND CORNBREAD DRESSING

Steps:

• Bake cornbread according to package directions. Cool and crumble into a large bowl.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook sausage until brown and crumbly, remove from the skillet but keep the oil in the pan. Add onions, apples and celery; cook stirring occasionally until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Toss the cooked mixture and the sausage into the bowl with the crumbled cornbread. Stir in the chicken broth and melted butter. Season with parsley, sage, thyme, rosemary salt and pepper. Blend well and press into a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 45 minutes.

CORNBREAD, APPLE, AND SAUSAGE STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Place cornbread cubes on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake until dry, about 20 minutes; set aside.
• In a large saute pan over medium heat, cook sausage until it's no longer pink. Transfer to a small bowl; set aside.
• Melt butter in the same saute pan. Add onion and celery, and cook over medium heat until translucent, 10 to 15 minutes. Add apples and cranberries, stir to combine, and cook 5 minutes. Add half-and-half, and cook, stirring for 3 minutes. Add sage, and remove from heat. Transfer to a large bowl. Add cornbread and sausage; stir to combine. Let cool completely before stuffing the turkey, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Add onion and celery and cook, until softened. Add apple and cook, until softened. Add herbs and stir. Return sausage to pot. Add croutons and chicken broth and bake stuffing in the oven at 375 degrees F for 30 to 40 minutes.

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!

CORNBREAD, SAUSAGE, APPLE, & PECAN STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Melt half the butter in a large skillet.
• Add onions and cook over medium-low to medium heat until tender and lightly browned, about 25 minutes.
• Remove onion and butter from pan and put in a very large bowl to be mixed later.
• In same skillet, melt rest of the butter, add apple, and cook quickly over high heat until lightly browned, but not mushy.
• Remove apples and butter from pan and put in the bowl with the onions.
• With the pan back on the burner, add sausage, crumbling as you cook it over medium heat, and cook until lightly browned.
• When done, remove with a slotted spoon and add it to the mixing bowl.
• Reserve drippings for basting later.
• Add remaining ingredients to the mixing bowl and combine gently.
• If you're going to stuff a turkey, cool completely in the refrigerator first.
• To cook it as a separate dressing, spoon the mixture into a large casserole (13 x 9 or slightly larger), cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30- 45 minutes at 325, basting occasionally with cooking juices from the turkey or with reserved sausage fat, if needed.
• Uncover the pan for the last 10 minutes of cooking to brown.
• Serve hot or warm.
• Note: You may need to use additional broth (approximately one 14 ounce can) as necessary to adjust the moistness of the stuffing to your taste, or if there are insufficient drippings from your poultry.
• Note: To make these as individual stuffing muffins, add one egg to the mix before baking to help the muffins keep their shape.

CORNBREAD SAUSAGE STUFFING FOR THANKSGIVING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F. Butter baking dish; set aside. Arrange bread and cornbread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, tossing occasionally, until completely dried out, 35-50 minutes. Let cool on baking sheet, then transfer to a very large bowl.
• Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high. Break sausage into ½" pieces and cook, stirring and breaking up into smaller (about ¼") pieces with a wooden spoon or spatula, until browned, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to bowl with bread but do not stir.
• Heat remaining 1 stick butter in same skillet over medium-high. Cook onions and celery, stirring often and scraping browned bits off bottom of pan, until just beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Add to bowl with bread mixture and let cool.
• Whisk eggs, broth, parsley, sage, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Add to bread mixture and fold gently until thoroughly combined.
• Increase oven temperature to 350°F. Transfer mixture to prepared dish, cover with foil, and bake stuffing until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 160°F, 40-45 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until set and top is browned and crisped, 45-50 minutes more.
• DO AHEAD: Stuffing can be assembled, but not baked, 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. When ready to bake, bring to room temperature and bake according to recipe. Stuffing can be baked 1 day ahead. Let cool completely, then cover with foil and chill. Keep covered and bake in a 350°F oven until warmed through, 25-30 minutes. Uncover and bake until top is crisped, 7-10 minutes more.
