Mary's Apricot Stuffing

Ingredients:

  • 1 jar Mary’s Gone Crackers Original or Savory Crumbs (or crumble Mary’s Gone Crackers Sticks & Twigs or crackers)
  • 1 cup onion (finely chopped)
  • 2 stalks celery (finely chopped)
  • 1/3 cup parsley (chopped)
  • 1/2 to 3/4 lb. Shiitake or other mushrooms (sliced and chopped)
  • 6-8 dried apricot halves, finely chopped
  • 4 Tbsps. olive oil or other cooking oil
  • 1/2 cup white wine (optional)
  • 1-2 cup gluten-free stock (turkey, chicken, or vegetable)
  • 1 tsp. dried or fresh rosemary (crumbled)
  • 1 tsp. dried or fresh sage (crumbled)

Directions:

  1. In a large skillet, add several tablespoons of olive oil, sauté onion on medium heat, stirring often, then cover to keep in the moisture, until soft.
  2. Add celery and continue to cook several more minutes.
  3. Add mushrooms and 1/2 cup wine (or a little broth). Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are nicely cooked.
  4. Add parsley, herbs and chopped apricots and cook a few more minutes to blend in the flavors.
  5. Turn off heat and keep covered.
  6. In a large bowl, pour in Mary’s Gone Crackers Original or Savory Crumbs. Add vegetable/apricot mixture to the bowl and mix well.
  7. Pour in broth and mix thoroughly. Add more liquid if needed (if stuffing a turkey, let it be drier, as the juices from the turkey will moisten it sufficiently; if baking in a casserole, adjust liquid so it doesn’t dry out).
  8. Season with salt and pepper to taste, if desired.
  9. Bake in covered casserole dish for 30 minutes at 350 degrees or until heated through and browned. Add more broth if stuffing looks too dry. Mary’s Gone Crackers Original or Savory Crumbs should absorb the liquid and soften somewhat.

Hazelnut Sage Stuffing

Hazelnut Sage Stuffing

Makes one 9 x 13 dish.

Prep Time: 40-50 minutes
Baking Time: 15-20 minutes

[Click on the photo to watch a video of this recipe.]

Ingredients:Alternative Appetites - Gluten-Free Stuffing

  • 1 loaf Rudi’s Gluten-Free Multigrain Bread
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 whole yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 bulb fennel, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 tablespoons sage, minced
  • ~1 pound Cremini mushrooms, chopped
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 ½ cup veggie stock (homemade is always better)
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup chopped hazelnuts

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 250 degrees.

2. Cut the loaf of bread into rough cubes, anywhere from ½ inch to ¾ inch pieces. Spread the bread cubes over a cookie sheet and toast them in the oven for 10-15 minutes, or until they’re light brown and slightly crisp on the outside.

3. Set the bread aside and turn the oven temperature up to 350 degrees.

4. Heat the oil in a sauté pan over medium heat and cook the onion, fennel, and garlic until they’re slightly translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

5. Add the sage and mushrooms and cook everything down for 10 minutes, or until the veggies are ~50% of their original volume. Season everything with salt and pepper as you go along and taste, taste, taste.

6. Put the bread cubes in a large bowl and mix in the cooked veggie mixture. Make sure you mix everything well, no giant pockets of bread or veggies hanging out on their own.

7. Pour the veggie stock and two eggs (unscrambled) over the bread mixture and stir everything one more time. You want it to be moist but not mushy, the egg should coat everything (it will help the stuffing set in the dish).

8. Spread the stuffing into a 9 x 13 dish and sprinkle the hazelnuts over the entire casserole.

9. Bake the stuffing for 15-20 minutes, or until the bread is nicely toasted on top and moist in the middle. The nuts on top will toast as the stuffing bakes and release their most Thanksgiving-y aroma into your house.

10. Get a spoon, a turkey and a bib. It’s Thanksgiving.
