This Cornbread Stuffing Recipe with apples and pecans is so delicious. You can leave the apples and pecans out of course, but I think they kick this dressing recipe up a notch and give it so much flavor. Your Thanksgiving guests will be begging fo seconds of this delicious side!
This is my Grandmommy's amazing stuffing recipe. When Thanksgiving is approaching and I am starting to put together our Thanksgiving Day menu, it's the first item that goes on the list. Once you've tried it, you'll never want any other kind of stuffing again...I promise! The addition of the apples and pecans takes traditional stuffing and adds a delicious, but subtle sweetness and a little crunch too. If you don't care for pecans, you can definitely leave them out, but I think you'll absolutely LOVE the apples. This stuffing or what we call "dressing" in West Virginia where I grew up is so good that my daughter and I love it even before it goes into the oven to cook. I hope your family enjoys making it, cooking it and of course, eating it as much as we do!
