How to Make Apricot Almond Stuffing

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine dried apricots, almonds, bread cubes, onion, celery, and sage.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together chicken broth, eggs, butter, salt, and pepper.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and gently toss to combine. Make sure the bread is evenly moistened but not soggy.
  5. Stuff the prepared mixture into your chosen poultry (chicken, turkey, or game hens) or place it in a greased baking dish.
  6. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the stuffing is golden brown and heated through. If using a baking dish, cover with foil for the first 20-25 minutes to prevent drying out, then remove foil for the remaining time to allow browning.
  7. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
