These toasty little pastries laced with sage and sausage conjure the taste of turkey dressing. Ingredients:
2 (16-ounce) loaves sliced sourdough bread |
1/3 cup butter or margarine, melted |
vegetable cooking spray |
1/4 pound hot ground pork sausage |
1/4 cup minced celery |
3 tablespoons minced onion |
3 large eggs, lightly beaten |
3/4 cup half-and-half |
1/2 cup (2 ounces) finely shredded mozzarella cheese |
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/8 teaspoon rubbed sage |
garnish: celery leaves |
Directions:
1. Cut bread slices into 40 rounds, using a 3 biscuit cutter. Roll each bread round lightly with a rolling pin. Brush both sides of each round lightly with melted butter. Press into miniature (1 3/4 ) muffin pans lightly coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until crisp and golden. 2. Cook sausage, celery, and onion in a skillet over medium-high heat until sausage is browned, stirring until sausage is finely crumbled; drain. 3. Combine sausage mixture, eggs, and next 6 ingredients in a medium bowl; stir well. Spoon into prepared toast cups, filling three-fourths full. 4. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes or until set. Serve warm. Garnish, if desired. |
