- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups onions, chopped
- 2 cups celery, chopped

- 1/2 teaspoon ground thyme
- 1 teaspoon ground pepper
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder with parsley (Lawry's California Blend)
- 1 cup apple juice
- 1/2 cup dried apricot, chopped (optional)
- Bake Italian Milano Sourdough Bread in bread machine. Slice ten 3/4- to 1-inch slices from loaf. Toast each side on an ungreased baking sheet in your oven under the broiler until just golden brown. Cool and cut into small 1/2-inch cubes. You'll get about 16 cubes from each slice of bread.
- Melt butter in large saute pan or 6-quart pan.
- Saute onion, celery, mushrooms, apples, and pecans together.
- When vegetables and apples are cooked through, add bread crumbs and spices.
- Coat with buttered mixture and add apple juice to moisten. Add optional dried apricots.
- When ready to bake, put mixture into lightly oil-sprayed baking dish (9 x 13) and bake at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-30 minutes. If it's been refrigerated, heating time will take longer.
- Serve hot.
