I love stuffing (dressing, if you like) at Thanksgiving! I can't remember where I found this recipe, but I love it as an alternative to stuffing with baked chicken, and it smells great when they are baking.

How To Make sage rolls

  • 1

  • 4
    Cover and let rise in a warm spot until doubled.
  • 5
    Melt the remaining butter and pour half of it into a 9-inch round cake pan or glass dish.
  • 6
    Divide dough into 12 equal pieces, shape into balls, and place in pan. Drizzle with remaining melted butter.
  • 7
    Cover and let rise again for about 30 minutes; should be at least almost doubled again.
  • 8
    Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Serve hot or reheat before serving
