Several years ago my friend Haley introduced me to this crispy stuffing. I know what you’re thinking, stuffing isn’t supposed to be crispy! I too had the same initial reaction but it grew on me the more I ate it and inevitably asked the the recipe.

If you are already an edge piece stuffing person, you really should give this a chance. Especially since it is packed with flavorful sausage, garlic, onion, apple, cranberries, and pine nuts. But if you still are not convinced, you can toss them in a splash of broth.
