Bread Crumb Recipe
Preheat oven 350 degrees

I took 16 pieces (loaf of bread) of Oroweat Double Fiber Bread and cut them into 1/4" squares. Bake for 5 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 3 minutes or until crispy. You can use seasoning if you prefer.

Stuffing recipe
Set oven to 350 degrees

Preheat a large skillet over medium high heat. and add your pork, and vegetables and apple. Cook until meat is browned and vegetables are tender. In a colander dump your meat and vegetable mixture to drain the fat. In a large bowl, add your meat mixture and bread crumbs. I used 10 cups of bread crumbs. In a bowl mix the egg and one cup of chicken broth together and place in bowl with bread crumbs and meat, mix together. Add additional broth until all of the bread is soft but not wet. About 4 cups total.

Spray 2 Muffin tins with cooking spray. With your hands scoop out the muffin mixture and place in muffin tins. You can over stuff the tins. Bake until set and crisp on top, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove stuffin' muffins to a platter and serve hot or room temperature.

You can use any kind of apple you like. I used granny smith for this stuffing.

    These were really good. The family loved them. Sent some off with my husband when he went on his trucking trip for the week. - 10/19/20

    I guess I didn't make them correctly... they just tasted like sausage bread. Nobody in my house liked them. My blender pulverized the apples. Not a good recipe for non-cookers. :) - 7/8/12

    I was just thinking the other day of making my stuffing in muffin cups to control portion sizes and this recipe is very close to the one I use. Good to see this. Thank you. - 9/21/11
