Description

This comforting Crockpot Turkey Breast and Stuffing recipe combines tender, juicy turkey breasts with a flavorful, homemade stuffing cooked together in the slow cooker for an easy and delicious meal. Perfect for a stress-free dinner, this dish infuses the stuffing with savory broth and herbs while keeping the turkey moist and tender.

Ingredients

Turkey

  • 3 pounds boneless turkey breasts
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth

Stuffing

  • 1 loaf bread, cubed with crusts
  • 1 apple, diced with peel left on
  • 2 stalks celery, diced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon ground sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Turkey: Place the boneless turkey breasts in the bottom of the crockpot, allowing them to overlap slightly if needed. Pour the chicken broth evenly over the turkey breasts to keep them moist during cooking.
  2. Make the Stuffing Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed bread, diced apple with peel, diced celery, diced onion, kosher salt, poultry seasoning, ground sage, and pepper. Mix all ingredients thoroughly to distribute the flavors evenly.
  3. Layer the Stuffing: Spread the stuffing mixture evenly over the turkey breasts and broth in the crockpot. Firmly pat the stuffing down to create a compact layer that will cook evenly with the turkey below.
  4. Cook Low and Slow: Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on low heat for 6 to 8 hours. This slow cooking method allows the turkey to become tender and juicy while the stuffing absorbs all the savory flavors.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Once cooked, carefully remove the turkey breasts and stuffing. Serve warm for a hearty and satisfying meal perfect for family dinners or special occasions.

Notes

  • Make sure the turkey breasts are thawed before starting the recipe for even cooking.
  • You can add fresh herbs like parsley or thyme to the stuffing for extra flavor.
  • If you prefer a moister stuffing, add an extra 1/4 cup of chicken broth.
  • Check the internal temperature of the turkey—it should reach 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
