Description

Slow Cooker Cranberry Pecan Stuffing is a delicious and easy recipe that combines bread, pecans, and cranberries.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 loaf of bread (cubed, preferably day-old)
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 onion (chopped)
  • 2 celery stalks (chopped)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 2 large eggs (beaten)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. If your bread is not stale, cube it and let it dry out for a few hours or overnight.
  2. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and garlic. Sauté until soft, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, mix the cubed bread, sautéed vegetables, cranberries, and pecans.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the chicken or vegetable broth, beaten eggs, thyme, sage, salt, and pepper.
  5. Pour the wet mixture over the bread mixture, stirring gently to combine thoroughly.
  6. Grease the slow cooker insert and add the stuffing mixture. Press it down gently to ensure even cooking.
  7. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 6 hours or on high for 2 to 3 hours. Stir occasionally if possible.
  8. The stuffing should be moist but not soggy; it should hold together when served.
  9. Once cooked, fluff the stuffing with a fork before serving.

Notes

  • This stuffing pairs well with turkey or chicken.
