Apple Pecan Cornbread Dressing Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish with light butter.
- In a large skillet, melt the light butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and celery, and cook until soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the diced apples, chopped pecans, sage, and thyme. Cook for another 3 minutes until the apples start to soften. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a large bowl, gently toss the crumbled cornbread with the apple mixture until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the low-sodium broth and eggs. Pour this mixture over the cornbread mixture and fold everything together gently.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, cover with foil, and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
