Pear, Apple, and Cranberry stuffing

This is the same idea as the Chicken Sausage and Apple stuffing I did earlier this year, but slightly different variation on the add-ins.

Instead of onions and apples, I added apple, pear, and cranberries. I loved the apple and cranberry, but I wasn’t thrilled about the pear. I think the taste was great, but the texture of the pear skin was really off. It just never softens the way apple skin does.

Next time I make this, I’ll either skin the pear first or leave it out altogether.


Shopping list…

1 box stuffing mix of your choice
1 sweet apple (like fuji), cubed into ½-inch pieces
1 pear, cubed into ½-inch pieces
2 tbsp butter
½ cup LESS water than described on stuffing box


What to do…

In a medium saucepan, melt butter.


Add in apples and pears, cook for about three minutes.


Add in cranberries and cook for another three to five minutes until apples are soft.


Add in water (use a half cup less than what the instructions on the stuffing box say).


Add stuffing, stir, let sit for five minutes.


Enjoy!
