Bacon Macadamia And Currant Stuffing Recipes

THANKSGIVING BACON STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat until cooked through but still slightly soft, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels, retaining bacon drippings in the skillet.
• Melt butter in a separate skillet over medium-high heat; saute onion and celery until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir bacon and poultry seasoning into onion mixture.
• Mix onion-bacon mixture and bread pieces together in a large bowl; fold in eggs. Spoon bread mixture into muffin cups.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tops are crispy, about 25 minutes.

BACON, MACADAMIA AND CURRANT STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200C (390F).
• Using a large frying pan, heat butter and oil over medium heat. Add onions, garlic and bacon. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or until onions are soft. Add currants and cook another 3 minutes.
• Combine breadcrumbs and nuts in a large bowl and add bacon mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Mix until combined (use your hands rather than a spoon or other utensil).
• Press mixture into lightly greased 1/3-cup muffin holes. Bake for 20-25 minutes - sutffin should be firm to touch in the centre and golden around the edges.
• Serve warm or at room temperature with turkey or pork.
