Slow Cooker Sausage And Apple Stuffing Recipes

SLOW-COOKER SAUSAGE STUFFING

Steps:

• Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 6-quart slow cooker with butter.
• Toss the stale French bread, butter, onions, carrots, celery, thyme and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper in the slow cooker. Pour the chicken broth over the bread mixture and toss to coat. Use your hands to tear teaspoon-size pieces of the Italian sausage and put them directly on top of the bread mixture. The sausage should cover most of the stuffing.
• Cover the slow cooker and cook on low until the sausage is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, about 4 hours. Remove the lid and gently stir the sausage into the stuffing. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper. Transfer to a shallow serving dish and garnish with the chopped parsley. Serve hot.

SLOW COOKER SAUSAGE AND APPLE STUFFING

Steps:

• Tear bread into small pieces and spread out on a baking sheet. Let dry at room temperature for 8 hours or overnight.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove sausage to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Drain and discard grease from the skillet.
• Melt butter in the same skillet over medium heat; stir in onion and celery. Cook and stir until very tender, about 10 minutes. Add sausage, apple, parsley, sage, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
• Put dried bread pieces into a large bowl. Pour sausage mixture over bread and mix.
• Combine chicken broth, applesauce, and egg in a bowl. Pour over bread mixture and mix well. Add more broth, as needed, to moisten all the bread. Don't add too much now; more can always be added later if needed.
• Spray the inside of a slow cooker with cooking spray. Pour stuffing mixture into the slow cooker; cover and cook on High for 1 hour. Reduce heat to Low and cook for 4 hours; stir the stuffing halfway through cooking, scraping the sides and adding more broth if it seems dry.
