It's stuffing season, and this Cranberry Apple Stuffing recipe promises to put store-bought stuffing to shame. Full of the satisfying flavors you love — plus the surprise addition of sweet or tart apples — this recipe practically begs to be passed down through the generations.

Serves: 8

Ingredients

Use Organic if possible

10 cups cubed bread
2 cups chopped celery
1½ cups chopped onion
1 cup chopped mushrooms
½ cup sliced leeks
3 cups chopped apples
3 Tbsp chopped parsley
1 Tbsp chopped fresh rosemary
½ tsp dried sage
½ tsp dried thyme
½ cup Garden of Life Coconut Oil
1 tsp sea salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 cup dried cranberries
2 cups vegetable broth

Preparation

Heat oven to 300 degrees.
Spread bread cubes in single layer on 2 baking sheets and cook for about 20 minutes, or until the bread has dried out.
While the bread is cooking, heat a large skillet to medium high and add in oil, celery, mushrooms, salt, pepper, leeks and onions and sauté for about 10 minutes.
Next, add in apples and continue to cook for another 5 minutes then remove from heat.
Place bread crumbs, sautéed mixture, parsley, rosemary, spices and cranberries in a large bowl and toss.
Slowly pour in broth and continue to mix until the bread has absorbed the broth.
Pour stuffing into 2 greased baking dishes and cover with foil and bake at 325 for 15 minutes.
Remove foil and continue to cook for another 15 minutes.
