HOMEMADE BREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until; saute onion and celery in hot butter until onion is soft, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Put bread cubes in a large bowl. Season bread with salt, sage, thyme, poultry seasoning, and black pepper. Add onion mixture to bread cubes; stir. Pour bread mixture into a large casserole dish and cover the dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and hot, about 1 hour.

EASY TURKEY STUFFING

Steps:

• In 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onion, celery and carrots; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender.
• In large bowl, mix bread cubes, parsley, poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. Add broth and butter-onion mixture, stirring until desired moistness (stuffing will become a little more moist during roasting because it will absorb juices from turkey).
• Use to stuff 1 (14- to 18-lb) turkey. After stuffing turkey, place any remaining stuffing in 1- or 2-quart casserole that has been sprayed with cooking spray; cover and refrigerate. Bake stuffing in casserole with turkey for last 35 to 40 minutes of roasting time or until thoroughly heated.

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and celery and cook, stirring often, until onion is translucent and beginning to brown, about 7 minutes. Stir in salt, poultry seasoning, and pepper and remove from the heat.

REALLY EASY BREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Moisten all the bread with as much water as is needed to make moist. Add the onion, seasoning, and salt and pepper. Mix with hands.
• Place in turkey or in foil and wrap up (which I do) and cook for at least 1 hour, longer if you are cooking it in the turkey. May open the foil for last 15 minutes to make top crusty.

EASY HOMEMADE STUFFING

Steps:

• Heat water between 105-115°F.
• I use water out of the tap, and let it run until I just can't keep my hand under any longer!
• Dissolve yeast in water in a large mixing bowl.
• Stir in sugar, oil and salt.
• Stir in 2 cups flour until smooth.
• Cover with a dish cloth and set in a warm place to rise for 15 min or until double in size.
• Stir down and add spices; stir.
• Add 2 1/2 cups flour, and stir to combine.
• Place 1/2 cup flour on your clean dry kneading surface.
• Turn dough onto surface and knead until most of the flour is worked in, or to a nice smooth consistency, 3-8 minutes.
• Cut in half and form into 2 loaves.
• Place in loaf pans sprayed with oil.
• Allow to rise, covered, for 20 min or until doubled in size.
• Bake at 425°F, or until it is lightly browned and sounds hollow when tapped on top.
• Take out of pans immediately and allow to cool.
• When cool, cut into slices, and cubes.
• Put on a baking sheet.
• Bake at 300°F for 1 hr or until lightly browned.
• Stir occasionally.
• Store in airtight container until you are ready to use.
• To make stuffing: 4 cups croutons to 1 cup water, 1-2 bouillon cubes, and 1-4 T margarine.
• This recipe makes 12 cups croutons, or there about, so if you are making the whole recipe, triple the liquids.
• You may add extra water if it isn't moist enough.
