CORNBREAD WITH DRIED CRANBERRIES
From the blog biggreencookbook.com and the original recipe from Williams-Sonoma. I rearranged the recipe and added a few things. The maple butter recipe is from about.com. It's quite good but very rich. As a rule, I will usually be serving this cornbread with a meal- thus saving the maple butter spread for special occasions. A teaser recipe presented to you to jump start the beginning of autumn in a few weeks. --Tasty Dish-- and I enjoyed the cornbread today for elevenses!

Steps:
- *Note: you can mimic the flavor of Trader Joes' brand of orange flavored dried cranberries by stirring about 1/4 teaspoon of orange extract into the batter.
- CORNBREAD: Preheat oven to 375 degrees (190 degree C).
- In a small saucepan over medium low heat, melt [2 tablespoons] of butter and set aside. Cut up the remaining 2 tablespoons butter into an 8-inch cast iron skillet.
- Place pan in oven until it is hot and the butter is melted and sizzling, about 1-2 minutes (Watch carefully!) Using oven mitts, rotate the pan as need to coat bottom evenly with melted butter. Remove from oven.
- In large bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking soda, salt and nutmeg. Make a well in the center. Whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter and beaten egg and pour it into the cornmeal mixture.
- Using a wooden spoon, mix the batter just until it comes together, okay to have some lumps. DO NOT overmix the batter.
- Coarsely chop the cranberries and stir them into the batter. Tip: to make chopping the cranberries easier, wet the knife on both sides. Spread batter evenly into the hot pan.
- Bake at 375 degrees until the top springs back when pressed gently in the center, about 20 to 25 minutes.
- Let cool on wire rack for 5 minutes. Best served warm.
- If desired, spread some of the maple butter onto each slice of cornbread.
- MAPLE BUTTER: Using a heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat, heat maple syrup until 235 degrees Fahrenheit (soft ball stage on a candy thermometer).
- Stir in butter.
- Pour mixture into a [deep] bowl (use a *deep* bowl to avoid splattering yourself with the hot liquid!), stir in the vanilla extract and beat with electric mixer until thick and creamy, about 4 minutes.
- Keep stored in glass container in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add onions and celery; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are soft, 5 to 7 minutes; transfer to a large bowl. Add 1 tablespoon oil, mushrooms, and sage to skillet; season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring often, until mushrooms are browned, 5 minutes. Add wine and cook, stirring and scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon, until wine is almost evaporated. Transfer to bowl with vegetables; add walnuts, bread, and enough broth to moisten (stuffing should feel moist but not soggy). Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine.
- Add eggs to bread mixture and toss well to combine. Reserve 4 cups stuffing for turkey. Spoon remaining stuffing into a lightly oiled 2-quart baking dish. (To store, cover and refrigerate, up to 1 day.) Preheat oven to 400 degrees, with rack in upper third. Bake, uncovered, until golden brown on top, 30 minutes.
