Author Notes

This recipe is based on my mother's Thanksgiving stuffing (or dressing as she called it). She didn't have a written recipe for her stuffing, but I think this comes close to hers and I love the simplicity of it. One year I decided to do muffins because it gave more room in my oven to cook other Thanksgiving dishes. Hence, Thanksgiving Stuffing Muffins to the rescue! —Shoal Creek Cook

I have made these twice and everyone loves the spin on stuffing. I tend to use less chicken broth as it seems a little much. You just need enough broth to moisten the mix so it sticks together. I bake them closer to 30 minutes to make them stick together. Definite go to for any holiday.
