Time 1h45m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 loaf vegan, gluten-free, brown rice bread (such as Food for Life®), cubed
2 tablespoons vegan margarine (such as Earth Balance®)
1 ½ cups mixed forest mushrooms, diced
1 ¼ cups sweet onion, chopped
2 ½ teaspoons dried sage
1 ½ teaspoons dried rosemary
½ teaspoon dried thyme
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
6 tablespoons vegan margarine (such as Earth Balance®), melted
1 ½ cups low-sodium vegan broth
8 ounces fresh cranberries
1 cup Granny Smith apple, peeled and chopped
⅓ cup minced fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Spread bread cubes on the prepared baking sheet. Toast in the preheated oven until fragrant and slightly golden, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven, leaving oven on. Let bread cool and transfer to a large bowl.
  • While bread is toasting, melt 2 tablespoons margarine in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add mushrooms and onions. Cook until onions are slightly translucent, about 5 minutes. Add a splash of vegetable broth is moisture is needed. Add sage, rosemary, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Cook and stir with a wooden spoon until combined, about 2 minutes more.
  • Pour mushroom mixture into the bowl with the toasted bread. Toss to evenly distribute. Pour 6 tablespoons melted margarine and vegan broth over the mixture. Add cranberries, apple, and parsley. Mix thoroughly but gently. Spread stuffing into a casserole dish and cover with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes; check at 25 minutes to prevent burning. Uncover and stir gently. Continue baking until top is browned, about 15 minutes more. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

VEGAN STUFFING



Vegan Stuffing image

The challenge with developing a vegan version of classic Thanksgiving stuffing is figuring out how to achieve that signature texture without the eggs. In this recipe, a few simple steps make it possible: First, vegetable broth is added to the stuffing mixture twice; once while it's in the skillet, and again just before baking. Finely chopped, toasted pecans add texture, but also act as a sort of flour, absorbing the broth and binding the mixture together. Finally, the stuffing is baked under foil for the first 20 minutes, which ensures that the top doesn't dry out before the entire dish is finished. The end result is a traditional stuffing that will have everyone - vegans and otherwise - coming back for seconds.

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (1-pound) baguette or peasant loaf, cut into 1-inch cubes (about 10 cups)
1/2 cup pecans (2 ounces)
4 tablespoons vegan butter, plus more for greasing the dish
1 large onion, chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
3 to 4 celery stalks, chopped (about 2 cups)
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh sage leaves
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
1/4 cup chopped parsley
3 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
Kosher salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • The day before you make the stuffing, place the bread cubes on a sheet pan and leave them out overnight, uncovered, to dry out. Alternately, you can place them on a sheet pan and bake at 275 degrees for about 25 minutes, or until the bread cubes are dry at the surface, but still soft in the center.
  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish. Place the pecans on a sheet pan and transfer to the oven. Roast for 4 minutes. Remove the pecans from the oven, chop finely and set aside.
  • Heat the butter in a deep 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and celery. Sauté for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the onion is clear. Reduce the heat to low. Add the sage, thyme and parsley, and cook for 1 minute, stirring continuously.
  • Add the bread to the skillet and 2 1/2 cups broth. Gently fold everything together, so the bread soaks up the broth. Fold in the pecans. Taste, and season the stuffing with salt and black pepper. (Vegan butter is usually salted, so the amount of salt you need will depend on the butter you use and how salty your broth is.)
  • Transfer all of the ingredients to the prepared baking dish. Drizzle the remaining 1/2 cup broth over the top. Cover the casserole dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover the casserole and bake for an additional 20 to 25 minutes, or until the top is just beginning to brown. Serve.

VEGAN STUFFING

All the usual suspects are here (minus the butter and eggs) to recreate the comforting flavors of traditional stuffing. Although green tea may seem like an oddball ingredient, we like its earthy flavor and find it a better replacement for chicken stock than vegetable stock, which can be too sweet and high in sodium.

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for greasing the baking dish
2 bags green tea
1 large onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
8 ounces sliced mushrooms
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
16 cups stale, 1-inch cubed white bread (about 1 pound)
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with oil.
  • Brew the tea bags in 2 cups of hot water for 5 minutes. Discard the tea bags (don't squeeze them out).
  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and celery and cook, stirring frequently, until just soft, about 6 minutes. Add the mushrooms, sage, thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring, until the mushrooms are soft, about 4 minutes. Add the brewed green tea, then bring to a simmer and remove from heat.
  • Put the bread in a large bowl and pour in the green tea-vegetable mixture. Add the parsley and toss until the bread is completely coated. Let rest for 10 minutes so the bread can soak up the liquid. Gently toss again and transfer to the prepared baking dish. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes more. Serve hot.
