Ingredients
Scale
4 cups leftover stuffing
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth
1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 teaspoon dried sage (optional)
Pinch of black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin.
In a large bowl, combine the leftover stuffing and dried sage, if using.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the beaten egg, broth, and melted butter.
Pour the wet ingredients over the stuffing mixture. Gently mix everything until the stuffing is just moistened. Do not overmix.
Spoon the stuffing mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups. Press down lightly to form a muffin shape.
Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the muffins hold their shape.
Let the Stuffing Muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before carefully removing them.
Serve warm and enjoy your Sunday Flavor creation!
Notes
You can add finely chopped celery or onion to the mixture for extra texture.
If your stuffing seems too dry, add broth one tablespoon at a time until it holds together.
These muffins freeze well. Cool completely, then store in an airtight container.
