I found this recipe and just had to post it...I love the sweet taste of maple and this is the recipe I will be making for Thanksgiving...Now Hubs doesn't really like the taste of maple so I will need to make turkey a different way for him, but that's okay...as long as I get my Maple Turkey...yummy!

• 1/2 pan cornbread, crumbled
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
