Prep time: 30 minutes
Total time: 1 hour, 50 minutes
Servings: 12
Serving size: About 1 cup
Course: Side

INGREDIENTS

  • 10 cups cubed cornbread

  • 6 tablespoons butter

  • 2 cups coarsely chopped onion

  • 3 stalks celery, halved horizontally and sliced

  • 1 medium green apple, peeled, cored and cut into bite-size pieces

  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons poultry seasoning

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme

  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

  • 1 teaspoon sage

  • 2 1/2 to 3 cups chicken broth, divided

  • Freshly ground sea salt and pepper to taste

  • 1 cup Mariani Whole Natural Almonds, coarsely chopped


INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Place bread cubes in a single layer on a large baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes to toast. Transfer to a large bowl.

  2. Lightly butter an 11 X 7-inch baking dish or coat with nonstick cooking spray.

  3. Increase oven temperature to 375°F. Melt butter in a very large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and apples; cook for 10 minutes or until both are soft, stirring frequently. Add celery to skillet; cook for 5 minutes more.

  4. Add vegetable mixture and herbs to bowl with bread cubes and stir lightly. Add enough broth to moisten bread cubes, but not so much that they’re soggy. (Bread should still be slightly firm on the edges.) Season with salt and pepper. (May be prepared 1 day ahead at this point and stored tightly covered in the refrigerator).

  5. Place in prepared baking dish and sprinkle with almonds. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, tenting lightly with foil if the top browns too quickly.
