For maximum flavor, Ina Garten bakes bread stuffing inside the turkey. Cubed white bread is toasted in the oven and then mixed with a sautéed mixture of onions, celery, sweet and tart apples, and aromatic herbs. If desired, almonds can be added for crunch, and whole-grain bread can be used instead of white bread. The stuffing is infused with the turkey's juices, resulting in an incredibly flavorful, juicy, and aromatic dish. Serve it as a side dish with the bird.



The recipes use measuring containers with the following volumes:
1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.
2/3 cup (st.) - 160 ml.
1/2 cup (st.) - 125 ml.
1/3 cup (st.) - 80 ml.
1/4 cup (st.) - 60 ml.
1 tablespoon (tbsp) - 15 ml.
1 teaspoon (tsp) - 5 ml.
1/5 teaspoon (tsp) - 1 ml.

Ingredients for the recipe:


  • 16 cups white or whole grain bread, cut into 2.5cm cubes (2 baguettes)
  • 60 g unsalted butter (55 g)
  • 2 cups yellow onion, diced into medium cubes (2 large onions)
  • 2 cups celery, diced into medium cubes (3 large stalks)
  • 2 Granny Smith apples, unpeeled, cut into large cubes
  • 2 tbsp. l. chopped parsley
  • 1.5 tsp chopped fresh rosemary leaves
  • 2 teaspoons coarse salt
  • 0.5 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup chopped blanched almonds (optional)

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 150°C. Place bread cubes on a 32x45x2.5 cm baking sheet and toast in the oven for 7 minutes.
  2. In a large skillet, melt the butter and add the onion, celery, apples, parsley, rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for 10 minutes, until the vegetables are soft.

  3. Combine bread cubes and vegetables in a large bowl and add chicken broth and almonds, if using.
  4. Transfer the stuffing into the turkey cavity and neck. I roast a 5.5 kg turkey for 2.5 hours in an oven preheated to 175°C (350°F). Make sure the stuffing is securely sealed in the cavity by tying the legs tightly with twine.
