Description

This Pepperidge Farm cranberry sage stuffing recipe for the slow cooker offers perfectly moist, flavorful results, ideal for holidays or busy weeknights to free up oven space and bring warm, hearty comfort to your table.

Ingredients

Scale

1 (14 oz) bag Pepperidge Farm Herb Seasoned Stuffing Mix (Cranberry Sage variety)
3 cups chicken or vegetable broth
0.5 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium yellow onion (about 1 cup diced)
2 stalks celery (about 1 cup diced)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary or thyme
0.25 cup extra dried cranberries
0.5 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Instructions

Prep Your Veggies: Finely dice 1 medium onion and 2 stalks of celery. Sauté in 2 tablespoons (28g) butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat until softened, about 5-7 minutes. This builds incredible depth of flavor!
Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, empty the Pepperidge Farm Cranberry Sage Stuffing mix. Add the sautéed onion and celery. Gently pour in 3 cups (710ml) broth and 0.5 cup (113g) melted butter, stirring until all stuffing pieces are thoroughly moistened.
Load the Crockpot: Lightly grease your 6-quart slow cooker insert. For easier cleanup, I often line mine with parchment paper. Transfer the moistened Pepperidge Farm stuffing crockpot recipe mixture to the slow cooker, spreading evenly.
Cook to Perfection: Cover and cook on HIGH for 2-3 hours or LOW for 4-5 hours. This Pepperidge Farm stuffing crockpot recipe cooks to perfection when hot throughout with crispy edges. (If your stuffing seems too dry, splash in 1-2 tablespoons more broth; if it is too wet, remove the lid for the last 30 minutes to allow moisture to evaporate.)
Serve Warm: Gently fluff the cranberry sage slow pot stuffing with a fork and serve immediately. This easy, hearty side dish is perfect for any family dinner!

Notes

For easier cleanup, line your slow cooker with parchment paper. Adjust moisture during cooking by adding broth if dry or removing the lid if too wet. Use low-sodium broth for a healthier twist or plant-based butter for dairy-free.
