Ingredients

  • 8 soft pretzel buns separated into tops and bottoms
  • 1 large onion I used red, peeled and roughly chopped into ¼" pieces
  • 5 ribs celery roughly chopped into ¼" pieces
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 teaspoons rubbed sage
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 cup pine nuts
  • 3-4 cups turkey stock or you may substitute chicken broth, stock, or vegetable broth

Instructions

  • Place the pretzel rolls on two baking sheets and toast in a preheated 350-degree oven for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Once toasted, remove the rolls from the oven and cool until easily handled.
  • Tear the toasted buns into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • While the rolls are toasting, saute the onion and celery in a large skillet with the butter and olive oil for approximately 3-5 minutes over medium heat.
  • Stir the salt, pepper, rubbed sage, garlic powder and pine nuts into the sauteed vegetables.
  • Continue sauteing the vegetables for an additional 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the sauteed vegetables and pine nuts into the large bowl with the toasted pretzel rolls. Stir well to combine.
  • Add the stock, one cup at a time to the stuffing mix, stirring after each addition until the stuffing is at the moisture level you prefer.
  • Turn the stuffing out into a casserole dish that has been sprayed with olive oil.
  • Bake the stuffing in a 425-degree oven to 35-40 minutes, or cover and refrigerate until ready to bake. 
  • *Note - if baking later, remove the stuffing from the refrigerator 30 minutes prior to baking. Uncover and bake as directed.
