RECIPE BY Cooking Light

The muffin cups give you crispy edges and a tender interior in half the time, though the stuffing won't hold its shape like a traditional muffin. Presliced bread and prechopped onion and celery save time.

Ingredients

  • 12 ounces sourdough bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (about 8 cups)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 1/2 cups diced apple
  • 1 1/4 cups prechopped onion
  • 2/3 cup prechopped celery
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 3/4 cups unsalted chicken stock (such as Swanson)
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • Cooking spray

Not worth the effort

The flavor is ok, but not what I look for in a stuffing recipe. I found these quite bland and agree with the other review that they don't stick together well. Although they were ok, I would never make these again.

Great Portioned Food

I loved the flavor combination of the apple and sage. The stuffing crisps up nicely because it's in smaller portions, which is just the way I like my stuffing.  For step-by-step photos and instructions, visit: http://www.icancookthat.org/2014/11/apple-sage-stuffing-cups.html

The flavor of these muffins are decent. However, I was mostly disappointed that they did not stick together.
