Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Coat a 24-cup mini-muffin pan with cooking spray.

  2. Arrange bread on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake until toasted and dry, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and place in a large bowl. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F.

  3. Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high until foamy, about 2 minutes. Add sausage, cook about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned. Add apple, onion, garlic, and sage, cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apple and onion are slightly softened. Remove from heat and cool 5 minutes. Transfer to the bowl with bread.

  4. Add chicken stock, parsley, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and eggs to bowl with bread mixture, toss gently until moistened. Divide mixture among muffin cups. Bake until set, about 20 minutes. Cool in pan 10 minutes. Use a small offset spatula to carefully remove from pans, serve warm.
