3/4 pound bread cubes (I use 1/2 whole wheat and 1/2 white bread cubes, but you can also buy other types of bread cubes that are already dried out and skip step 1).
3 chicken apple sausage links (or 1/2 pound ground sausage)
2 teaspoons oil
2 tablespoon butter plus more for greasing
1 apple, peeled and chopped (gala, fuji, or golden delicious)
2 celery stalks, chopped
1/2 onion, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups chicken stock

Toast bread cubes in a 300 degree oven for 8-10 minutes.
Turn the oven temperature to 350 degrees.
If using sausage links, remove casings.
Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a large saute pan over medium heat and cook sausage for 3-5 minutes or until cooked through. Remove to a plate.
Heat butter in the saute pan over medium heat and cook the apples, celery, onion, thyme and salt for 6-8 minutes until soft and tender.
Place the bread cubes in a bowl with the sausage, vegetables, eggs and chicken stock. Combine thoroughly.
Grease a 11 x 7 baking dish. Place the stuffing mixture in the dish.
Bake for 40 minutes.
Serve.
