Apple Cranberry Stuffins

Apple Cranberry Stuffins

This apple cranberry stuffing is baked in muffin tins. It is a lovely presentation that is also portion controlled!

  • muffin tin
  • 1 bag stuffing mix
  • .5 onions peeled and chopped
  • 2 each stalks of celery (chopped)
  • 1 each apple (peeled, cored, chopped)
  • .25 cup dried cranberries (or chopped fresh ones)
  • 1.75 cups water
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  1. Saute the apples, onions, and celery with a little spray vegetable oil. Cover and cook until tender. Add the stuffing mix and olive oil. Mix well. Then add the water. Cover and cook on very low heat for a few minutes.

  2. Grease the muffin tins. Scoop the stuffing into the tins.

  3. Bake the stuffins for about 30 minutes or until they are heated through and a nice brown color on the top and sizes.

  4. Serve on a platter. Garnish with a few more cranberries and some parsley.

For this recipe, we used the Sprouts stuffing mix. You can also use any commercial stuffing mix but in that case, follow the directions on the package except cut the fat in half and add in the sauteed cranberries, apples, celery, and onions.
