    • \u00bd<\/span> cup<\/span> finely chopped onion<\/span><\/li>
    • \u00bd<\/span> cup<\/span> finely chopped celery<\/span><\/li>
    • \u00bd<\/span> cup<\/span> chopped apple<\/span> (core, but do not peel before chopping)<\/span><\/li>
    • 1<\/span> tsp<\/span> powdered sage<\/span><\/li>
    • 1<\/span> tsp<\/span> powdered thyme<\/span><\/li>
    • 1<\/span> tsp<\/span> ground oregano<\/span><\/li>
    • 8<\/span> cups<\/span> herb stuffing<\/span> (store-bought, or use plan bread cubes and add a quarter teaspoon more of ground sage, thyme, and oregano)<\/span><\/li>
    • 3<\/span> eggs<\/span> beaten<\/span><\/li>
    • 1<\/span> tsp<\/span> salt<\/span><\/li>
    • \u00bd<\/span> tsp<\/span> black pepper<\/span> (freshly ground is best)<\/span><\/li>
    • 2<\/span> oz<\/span> melted butter<\/span> (\u00bd a stick)<\/span><\/li>
    • \u00bc to \u00bd<\/span> cup<\/span> chicken broth<\/span> or water<\/span><\/li>
    • honey<\/span> (optional, to taste)<\/span><\/li>
    • dried cranberries<\/span> (optional)<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n

      <\/span>Instructions<\/span><\/h3>
      • Preheat the oven to 350F, rack in middle position<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Spray the inside of the muffin pan cups with non-stick cooking spray, or line them with cupcake papers.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • In a 10-inch or larger frying pan, add the stick of butter, cut in 4 to 8 pieces. Heat the pan over medium heat to melt the butter.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Once the butter has melted, add the chopped onions, and give them a stir.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Add the chopped celery, and stir it in.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Add the chopped apple, and stir it in.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Sprinkle in the ground sage, thyme, and oregano.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Saut\u00e9 this mixture for 5 minutes. Then remove the pan from the heat.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • In a large mixing bowl, combine the herb stuffing. (If store-bought stuffing has a separate herb packet, sprinkle it over the top of the mixture in your frying pan.)<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Pour the beaten eggs over the top of the herb stuffing, and mix them in.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Sprinkle on the salt and pepper, and mix them in.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Pour the melted butter over the top, and mix it in.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Add the mixture from your frying pan to the mixing bowl ingredients.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • If using, add the honey and cranberries, and stir them in.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Pour the chicken broth over the top of your bowl ingredients, wash your hands, and then mix everything with your hands.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Feel the resulting mixture. It should be softened, but not wet. If you think it's so dry that your muffins might fall apart after you bake them, mix in another \u00bc cup of chicken broth.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Once your Stuffin' Muffin mixture is thoroughly combined, move the bowl close to the prepared muffin pan, and go wash your hands again.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Use an ice cream scoop or a large spoon to fill your muffin cups. Mound the tops of your muffins by hand.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
      • Bake the Stuffin' Muffins at 350F for 25 minutes.<\/span><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n
