My Thanksgiving table is never complete without a big tray of homemade stuffing. This sausage stuffing recipe is loaded with flavorful breakfast sausage, sautéed veggies, tart apples, and plenty of fresh herbs. It’s got that traditional holiday flavor but with the great addition of juicy sausage! This is a family-favorite recipe and one that I can’t imagine the holidays without.
Tips for Success
You just want to dry the bread out in the oven; do not brown it. If you can’t find bulk breakfast sausage, simply remove the casings! For a vegetarian-friendly version, try sautéeing mushrooms and using veggie broth. This stuffing can be assembled 1 day ahead. Keep covered and refrigerate until ready to bake. Remove from the fridge about 15 minutes before cooking, and add 5-10 minutes to the final bake time.
How to Store and Reheat
Store leftover sausage stuffing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating covered in a 350°F oven for 15-20 minutes, or until warmed through.
Serving Suggestions
Happy Thanksgiving! Serve this sausage stuffing with all the best accompaniments like sweet potato casserole, turkey gravy, cranberry sauce, and mashed potatoes.
