Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F/177°C.
- Spread the cubed bread on a large baking sheet and bake in a single layer for 10 minutes, until lightly toasted.
- Remove from oven and let cool. Set aside.
- In a large skillet or pan over medium-high heat, add the Italian sausage (squeezed out of its casing), and break it into smaller pieces with a wooden spoon or spatula.
- Fry for 1-2 minutes to release its drippings before adding in the red onions, and continue to stir.
- Add in fennel seed, chopped sage, salt (if using) and black pepper.
- Lower the heat, add in the cubed bread, apple and dried cranberries and toss everything to combine.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly (so that the egg doesn't get cooked in the pan).
- Beat together the egg and chicken stock in a bowl.
- Pour the egg liquid mixture over the stuffing and mix everything together with a wooden spatula so the bread absorbs the liquid.
- Transfer the stuffing to an oven-safe casserole dish and cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake at 350°F/177°C for 20 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake uncovered for another 10 minutes.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
