Ingredients

6 cups whole-wheat bread, cubed
1 1/2 cup raisins
4 apples, unpeeled and chopped
1 1/2 cup onion, finely chopped
4 celery, sliced thin
3 eggs
1 cup walnuts or pecans, chopped
4 tablespoons margarine, melted
2 1/2 cups chicken broth
1/2 tablespoon black pepper, freshly ground

Instructions

1. If the bread is not stale, spread the slices out on a rack or counter for half a day to dry them out. Then cut into cubes.

2. Combine the bread cubes with the remaining ingredients. Stuff the turkey or bake in a covered oven-proof dish for about 40 minutes at 325 degrees F (or whatever temperature you are using for your turkey) or put into Crockpot and cook on high for 2 hours, then low for 4 hours.
