Our daughter Briana flew home for the weekend, & wanted an enjoyable home cooked meal, this is one of the recipes I created to go with Braised Pork Chops. I had these pre sliced apples in the fridge that would have probably gone bad, had I not incorporated them into a side dish, so this is what I came up with, then decided that the golden raisins would also compliment the apples in the stuffing. This was a great combination especially with the Braised chops & pan Gravy & mashed Potatoes. It was a great meal idea, & everyone was very full, pleased & happy with a home cooked comforting meal.

How To Make sour dough raisin & apple stuffing

  • 1
    Cut bread into cubes, and leave out on counter over night or toast lightly in oven on the day you plan to make the stuffing. Add to a large mixing bowl. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9X13 size casserole dish with non stick cooking spray & set aside till needed.
  • 2
    Chop onions, celery and both peppers.
  • 3
    Chop or process apples in food processor on pulse several times until desired size is reached. I prefer to leave the skin on for added fiber.
  • 4
    Heat butter in large skillet until melted over medium high heat. Then add in the chopped vegetables & apples and sauté until crisp tender. about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • 5
    Now add cooked mixture to large bowl with bread cubes, and stir to mix together.
  • 6
    Add in the chicken broth and sage or poultry seasoning, & thyme and stir till mixed.
  • 7
    Combine both cans of undiluted soup with eggs in a small bowl or large glass measuring cup, SLOWLY add the beaten soup mixture a little at a time, being cautious that stuffing in not too moist, (MAY NOT NEED ALL OF MIXTURE) and beat together until blended well. I USED ALL OF MINE then added a few extra slices of cubed bread. We prefer a more moist stuffing rather than dry.
