I love cranberry sauce...all kinds.

Everyone...I'm looking for a dressing recipe with apples & walnuts. Could be with rice or bread. I've found a lot of recipes with sausage, but I'm not sure about using sausage in my dressing.

Anyone have a tried and true recipe like that?

I have used apples and almonds but I just winged it, I uses rice and wild rice with it and apples with peels on. onion too if I remember correctly., and raisins, and dried cranberries. I tend to be a wing it cook.

Here are some delicious muffins. They're great to have around the house when lots of family is visiting. I make them for the neighbors' Christmas gifts.

MORNING GLORY MUFFINS
2 1/4 cups flour
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

2 cups grated carrots (4 medium-large)
1 apple, cored and shredded
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup pecans or walnuts ( I use more, of course )
8-oz can crushed pineapple, drained

3 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

In large bowl, sift together
flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking soda & salt.
Stir in carrots, apple, coconut, raisins, nuts & pineapple.

In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, oil and vanilla.
Pour into bowl with dry ingredients; blend well.

Spoon batter into greased muffin tins. Fill almost to the top. (mine made 24 large muffins)

Bake in a pre-heated 350 degree oven about 35 minutes. Cool muffins in pan about 10 minutes then turn out onto wire rack to cool completely.

Store in airtight container. Best when allowed to "ripen" for 24 hours.

I stuff my turkey with apples, onions, celery and some poultry seasoning. I toss it when the turkey is done. I make Corn Bread Dressing in my slow cooker to serve with the turkey. Mmm Mmm. Good eatin!

I got a great Cranberry Crumbcake recipe from King Arthur flour today. I'll find the recipe and see if I can paste it in! I have spent SO much money at that site this year! But they have some great stuff. Their pebbled aluminum cookie sheets are the best I've ever used! I bought their Butter Bell, and it is wonderful. The butter stays fresh and always so easily spreadable!
