Vegan Apple Sausage Stuffing Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook for about 4 minutes, until fragrant and the onion is translucent.
• Add the apples, mushrooms, fennel seeds, rosemary, sage, maple syrup, salt, and pepper and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for about 10 minutes, until the mixture is tender and the liquid released from the mushrooms has evaporated. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• Add the cannellini beans and chickpeas to a food processor and pulse into a smooth paste.
• Transfer the bean paste to a large bowl and add the apple/mushroom mixture and vital wheat gluten. Mix with a spatula and then your hands until well combined.
• Form the sausage mixture into a loaf, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Unwrap the chilled sausage mixture and divide into 10-12 equal pieces, depending on what size sausages you would like.
• Roll a piece between your palms into a sausage shape. Place in the center of a large sheet of plastic wrap and roll the plastic over it so the sausage is completely encased. Twist the ends of the wrap and knot them together tightly. Repeat for each sausage.
• Bring a large pot of water to a simmer. Plunge the wrapped sausages in the water and simmer for 45-50 minutes, until the sausages are firm.
• Remove from the water and let cool for about 5 minutes, then unwrap.
• Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Fry the sausages for 1-2 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
• Serve immediately or keep wrapped in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
• Enjoy!

• Toss to mix well.
• In a large skillet, heat the butter, margarine or oil over medium heat.
• Add the celery and saute for a minute or two.
• Then add the onions, and saute another few minutes.
• Add the chopped sausage patties, the apple, and the nuts, and keep sauteeing until the onions are transluscent, the apples are just barely cooked through and the nuts are lightly toasted.

• Add about half of the broth to the stuffing mixture and stir.
• Keep adding broth and mixing it in until the whole mixture is moistened to the stuffing consistency you like.

• You can cover it at this point and refrigerate it until you're ready to bake it.
• Bake at 350 for about 30-40 minutes, until heated throughout and a bit crispy on top.
• If you need to keep it warm in the oven, keep it covered with a pan cover or aluminum foil.
• NOTES: Bell's Seasoning: Bell's seasoning is a fantastic chicken and stuffing seasoning mix that's been around for ages.
• I've seen it touted as Martha Stewart's secret stuffing ingredient, but my family's been using it forever, long before she was Martha Stewart!
• If you can't find it, it's a mixture of rosemary, oregano, sage, ginger, marjoram, thyme and pepper.
• If you can't get Bell's, use a mixture to your taste of whatever of those seasonings you can get your hands on, and go a little bit heavy on the sage.
• Bread Mixture: You want the stuffing mix that is just the cornbread crumbs or dried cubes, you don't want a Stovetop type mix.
• You can substitute 1/2 to 3/4 of a loaf of fresh bread, cubed, mixed with and 8x8" pan of crumbled cornbread.
• If using fresh bread, you'll need much less broth, and you might want to go a bit heavier on the seasonings.
• Taste first and see.
• Soy"sausage" patties: You can omit this completely if you desire and still have a great stuffing.
• Broth Mix: This is my secret to vegetarian cooking.
• The kosher broth mixes come in powder form in jars, and can be found in the kosher food section of the supermarket.
• Carmel Kosher and Manischewitz are two of the more popular brands.
• There are no mean products in them whatsover, and they are not only vegetarian, they are vegan too (I checked).
• They come in chicken, beef, onion, mushroom, and other flavors.
• And I personally like them better than the kinds that have meat in them.
• If you don't want to use them, then a vegetable broth mix would work fine.
• But I like the richness they can give to many vegetarian dishes.
