Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F, then grease a 9×13-inch baking dish, and set it aside. Place a large skillet on a stove over medium heat, then melt the butter, and add the chopped onion and celery. Saute them for about 5 minutes, then add the chopped apples and dried cranberries, and cook them for another 2 minutes or until the apples are slightly tender.

Step 2

Add the dried sage, thyme, salt, and black pepper, then give them a good mix, and turn off the heat. In a larger bowl, add the bread cubes and chopped parsley, then give them a good mix, and add the apple cranberry mixture. Slowly pour in the broth, then gently mix to moisten the bread evenly, and add more broth if it’s too dry.

Step 3

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, then cover it with foil, and place it in the preheated oven. Allow it to bake for about 30 minutes, then remove the foil, and let it bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown and crispy. Let it cool for a few minutes, then garnish with chopped parsley, and serve. Enjoy!
