Ingredients
  

  • 7 tbsp butter divided

  • 1 cup mushrooms chopped
  • 1 cup celery diced
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • 1 tsp poultry seasoning
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tubes buttermilk biscuits separated and cut into quarters
  • 1 tbsp parsley freshly chopped for garnish

  • Skillet
  • Frying Pan
  • Wooden Spoon
  • Cutting Board
  • Chef's Knife
  • Mixing Bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F. Grease a 10-inch or similar size fluted tube pan and set it aside. This step ensures that your stuffing ring comes out easily and retains its lovely shape.
  2. Melt 6 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir occasionally to ensure it doesn’t burn. The melted butter will provide a rich base for the vegetables.
  3. Add in the onion, mushrooms, celery, and garlic to the skillet. Sauté until they are tender, about 5 minutes. Keep an eye on them, stirring occasionally to allow for even cooking. You’ll know they’re ready when the onion is translucent and fragrant.
  4. Transfer the sautéed vegetable mixture to a large bowl and let it cool for 10 minutes. This cooling period is essential as it ensures that the egg doesn’t scramble when added.
  5. Once cooled, pour in the lightly beaten egg, poultry seasoning, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Toss in the quartered biscuits as well. Stir gently to coat all the ingredients evenly, ensuring that the biscuits are well mixed with the flavorful vegetable mixture.
  6. Pour the mixture into the prepared tube pan, spreading it out evenly. This helps it to cook uniformly and creates a nice texture throughout.
  7. Bake for 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a meat thermometer inserted into the center reads 160 degrees F. This is where the magic happens, and your kitchen will be filled with a wonderful aroma.
  8. Once baked, remove the tube pan from the oven and place it on a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes. This cooling step allows the stuffing to set up a bit, making it easier to remove from the pan.
  9. After cooling, run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen it. Carefully place a serving platter on top of the fluted pan, and turn it over quickly to release the Pull Apart Stuffing Ring. It should come out beautifully!
  10. Drizzle the stuffing ring with the remaining tablespoon of melted butter and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. This final touch not only adds flavor but also makes the dish look stunning.
  11. Enjoy your Pull Apart Stuffing Ring warm, pulling apart each piece filled with delicious stuffing. It’s a crowd-pleaser that’s sure to impress!

Notes

  • Tip 1: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to restore its fluffy texture.
  • Tip 2: You can freeze the unbaked mixture for up to a month. Just prepare it and freeze before baking. Thaw overnight in the fridge before baking.
  • Tip 3: This stuffing ring pairs beautifully with roasted vegetables, a salad, or even as a side to your favorite main dish.
  • Tip 4: Swap out the thyme for oregano or basil, depending on your taste preferences. This can create a completely different flavor.
  • Tip 5: Experiment with various types of refrigerated biscuits; flaky layers work great, but you could also try whole wheat for a healthier twist.
