How to Make Bakinbaby's Elegant Stove Top Stuffing

  1. In a large skillet, sauté 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/2 cup chopped celery, and 1/2 cup chopped apple in 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat for 4 minutes, or until softened.
  2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring 1 cup chicken broth, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1/4 cup water to a simmer.
  3. Add the sautéed vegetables and 6 cups of your favorite stove top stuffing mix to the simmering broth. Stir in 1/2 cup dried cranberries and 1/4 cup raisins. Cook over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, or until the stuffing is heated through and the liquid is absorbed.
  4. Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes to allow the stuffing to fully absorb the liquid.
  5. Fluff the stuffing with a fork before serving. For extra crispy topping, bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 10 minutes.
