Sausage And Sage Apple Stuffed Apples Recipes

BEST SAUSAGE AND APPLE STUFFING RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees
• Cut the bread into cubes, about 1/2" to 3/4" cubed pieces, and lay them on a baking sheet. ( I like to find bread in the marked down or day-old section of the bakery. You can use a mixture of sourdough, white and wheat bread.)
• Lay the bread cubes on a large baking sheet and bake in a 250-degree oven for about an hour. You will want to toss them a few times in that hour to dry out all the bread.
• Transfer the bread cubes to a very large bowl. Set aside while you make the rest of the stuffing.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Cut up your onions and celery. 1/2" pieces work great. Put them in a large pot with the butter. Cook on medium heat, stirring frequently, until your celery and onions are tender and translucent, about 8 minutes.
• Add the sausage and using the bottom of the spoon, break the sausage up into small chunks. Cook the mixture until the sausage is no longer pink. Add the diced apples and cook for an additional minute.
• Add the minced Parsley, Thyme, and Sage, Salt, Pepper and 1 1/2" cups of the chicken broth.
• Pour the chicken broth and celery mixture over the cubed bread. Gently fold the ingredients together. (The stuffing should be moist but no standing water. If it seems like it's a little dry, add the additional 1/2 cup of chicken broth.)
• Spray a 9 by 13" baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
• Spread the stuffing evenly on the baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes, stirring gently every 15 minutes. When the stuffing is done, the top should be lightly brown.
• Serve Immediately. Stuffing is best warm and fresh but will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days.

SAUSAGE AND CIDER CASSEROLE WITH APPLES AND SAGE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4. Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole (with a lid). Add the sausages and brown them all over, then transfer to a plate.
• Add the bacon lardons to the casserole and fry for 5 minutes until the fat is crisp and brown. Transfer to the plate with the sausages.
• Drain off all but 1 tbsp of the oil from the casserole, add half the butter and, when melted, add the onions and garlic. Cover and cook for 10 minutes, stirring now and then, until soft and lightly browned.
• Take off the lid, stir in the parsnips and celery and cook for 2 minutes more. Stir in the tomato purée and flour, then gradually stir in the cider and stock and bring to the boil.
• Return the sausages and bacon to the casserole, then stir in the sage and mustard. Cover, put in the oven and cook for 40 minutes.
• When the casserole is ready, melt the remaining butter in a non-stick frying pan. Quarter, core and slice the apples into wedges. Add them to the pan and fry gently for 2-3 minutes until golden all over and just tender. Season with a little salt and pepper.
• Remove the casserole from the oven, stir in the apples and season to taste (add a squeeze of lemon if you think it needs it). Sprinkle with the fried sage leaves, if using. Serve with baked potatoes or mash and greens.

SAUSAGE AND APPLE STUFFED ACORN SQUASH RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Using a sharp knife cut off the very top and bottom of each squash to create a flat base on each side (being careful not to cut through the center cavity).
• Slice the squash in half, scrape out seeds to create individual bowls for the stuffing.
• Drizzle each squash half with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
• Roast in a preheated oven at 400˚F (200˚C) for 40-50 minutes - or until fork tender.
• While squash is roasting - in a large fry pan over medium heat - heat oil and add Onion, Celery, Salt, Pepper, and Rosemary. Cook until onions begin to soften.
• Add Garlic and Sausage, until sausage is browned on all sides.
• Add Apple until slightly softened. Finally mix in Bread Crumbs and Parmesan cheese just until incorporated. Remove from heat.
• Once Squash has finished roasting (when you can easily poke it with a fork) remove from oven and fill each with prepared stuffing mixture.
• Return to Oven for 20 minutes - adding a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese to the top for the final 5 minutes.
• Enjoy!

SAGE, SAUSAGE AND APPLE DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Put the stuffing cubes in a large bowl and set aside. Butter a 3-quart casserole dish.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and break it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until it loses most of its pink color, but not so much that it's dry, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage and pan drippings to the stuffing cubes. Melt the remaining butter in the pan. Add the onion, apple, celery, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until the vegetables get soft, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and parsley and bring to a boil.
• Pour the vegetable mixture over the stuffing cubes and toss until evenly moistened. Mix in the walnuts and eggs. Loosely pack the dressing in the prepared pan and cook uncovered until the top forms a crust, about 40 minutes. Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of turkey pan drippings or melted butter over the top. Cook until the top is crisp and golden, about 20 minutes more.

SAUSAGE-STUFFED BAKED APPLES

Steps:

• In a skillet, cook sausage and onion until sausage is not longer pink and onion is tender; drain and cool slightly. Core apples; cut in half horizontally. Place in an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. In a bowl, combine egg and brown sugar; stir in sausage mixture. Spoon into the apples. Cover and bake at 350° for 15 minutes. Uncover and bake 15 minutes more or until apples are tender. Serve with syrup.

SAUSAGE AND APPLE STUFFING

• Place ground pork breakfast sausage in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain and set aside.

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Prepare herb-seasoned dry bread stuffing mix according to package directions. Mix in sausage, celery mixture, apples and chicken broth.

SAUSAGE AND SAGE APPLE-STUFFED APPLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil, then the sausage. Saute the meat until browned but still a little pink, about 5 minutes. Add the shallot and continue to cook until the sausage is fully cooked, another 5 minutes. Off the heat, deglaze with the calvados and scrape up any bits on the bottom of the skillet. Add the raisins, pistachios and sage. Season with salt and pepper and set aside to cool in a bowl.
• Halve the apples from stem to bottom and core. Carefully hollow them out using a melon baller, reserving the apple "balls." Chop up the apple "balls" (you should have about 3/4 cup) and add to the sausage mixture. Stuff each hollowed-out apple half with some of the sausage mixture.
• Pour the vinegar into the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and add the stuffed apples skin-side down. Bake until the apples are just soft, about 25 minutes. Top each apple with a slice of cheese and continue to bake until melted, another 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh thyme leaves.
