Preparation
STEP 1

Preheat oven to 350°F.

STEP 2

Place bread cubes on a sheet pan and toast in the oven until very lightly browned. Set aside to cool.

STEP 3

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter and add onion, carrot, garlic and mushrooms. Add salt and pepper and sauté until mushrooms become slightly browned. Turn off heat, add apricots, herbs and wine to hot pan and stir. Allow to cool slightly. (This can be done the day before serving. Simply refrigerate until ready to assemble.)

STEP 4

In a large bowl combine stock and eggs, then add sautéed mixture and bread cubes. Toss well to combine.

STEP 5

Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish liberally with cooking spray. Place dressing in dish, cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 15-20 minutes, until top is crusty and brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
