  1. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions, leeks, celery, and garlic. Cook until onions are translucent and softened, about 20 minutes (stirring often).

  2. Add mushrooms and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Transfer mixture to a large platter; spread out and let cool, about 5 minutes. (This can be refrigerated overnight).

  3. Combine onion-mushroom mixture, bread, apricots, sage and thyme in a large bowl. Just before baking, pour melted butter and broth over the mixture and stir gently to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Let stand for about 10 minutes, allowing bread to soak up the liquid.

  4. Preheat oven to 375°F. If you're stuffing your turkey, get as much as you can into the cavity of the turkey and put the rest in a greased baking dish. Bake until top is crisp and stuffing is heated through, 50 to 55 minutes.
