Best Recipe for Open-Faced Waffle Cornbread Stuffing Sandwiches with Turkey, Brie and Bacon
Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon
- 1 cup leftover cranberry relish
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons whole-grain Dijon mustard
- 4 cups crumbled leftover cornbread stuffing
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
- 1/2 cup chicken broth, preferably low-sodium
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 16 thin slices Brie
- 1 cup chicken broth (preferably low-sodium)
- About 1 pound sliced leftover roast turkey
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 6 large eggs
Instructions
- Watch how to make this recipe.
- Special equipment: a waffle maker
- For the bacon: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put the bacon on a baking sheet and roast until crisp, about 15 minutes. Set aside. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
- For the cranberry Dijon mayo: Whisk the cranberry relish together with the mayonnaise and mustard in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- For the cornbread waffles: Preheat a waffle maker. Put a rack on a baking sheet.
- In a large bowl, stir together the leftover stuffing, eggs, parsley and sage. Add 1/4 cup of the chicken broth and mix until well combined. Continue adding chicken broth as needed until the mixture is well moistened--it should just hold together in your hand. Season with salt and pepper.
- Using about 1/2 cup per waffle, shape the stuffing mixture into fat round patties; they should be smaller than the waffle grids.
- Spray the waffle maker with some nonstick spray, then add the stuffing patties and close the lid. Let the waffles cook until golden brown, crispy and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. (The waffle maker should stop steaming when the waffles are cooked through.) Remove the waffles to the rack on the baking sheet, and repeat with the remaining waffle mixture.
- Put a few slices of Brie on each waffle, transfer to the oven, and warm just to melt the cheese a bit, about 5 minutes.
- For the turkey: Meanwhile, bring about 1 cup of broth to a simmer in a large skillet. Add the turkey and heat until just warmed through, about 5 minutes.
- For the eggs: Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the eggs and fry until the whites are set and the yolks still runny, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- To assemble: Dollop some of the cranberry Dijon mayonnaise on top of each waffle. Top with some warm turkey, then some bacon, and finally an egg. Serve immediately.
