I updated a basic stuffing recipe by using wholesome multigrain bread in place of customary white bread. It adds a hearty, crunchy taste. —Edie DeSpain, Logan, Utah

Ingredients

8 cups cubed day-old multigrain bread
3/4 cup golden raisins
1/2 cup apple juice
1/4 cup olive oil
4 celery ribs, diced
1 large onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup minced fresh parsley
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1-1/2 teaspoons rubbed sage
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds, crushed
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 large egg
1-1/2 to 2 cups chicken broth
1-1/2 cups coarsely chopped pecans, toasted

Directions

Preheat oven to 225°. Place bread cubes in a single layer on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake until partially dried, tossing occasionally, 30-40 minutes. Set aside. Increase oven temperature to 325°.
Meanwhile, combine raisins and apple juice in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Remove from the heat; let stand for 15 minutes. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add celery, onion and garlic; cook and stir until tender, 5-7 minutes. Stir in parsley, salt, sage, thyme, fennel seeds and pepper; remove from the heat. Beat egg and broth; add to vegetable mixture with bread cubes and raisin mixture. Toss well. Stir in pecans. Transfer to a greased 13x9-in. baking dish.
Cover and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover; bake until lightly browned, 15-20 minutes longer.
