This flavorful turkey bread stuffing combines rich, roasted shiitake mushrooms with sweet-spicy chunks of butternut squash and shallots, simmered in natural apple cider. The base of the casserole is sourdough bread cubes. To ensure the best flavor, brush the top with the turkey's rendered fat (butter can be substituted) before baking.
