Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Rub turkey all over with canola oil, salt and pepper. Cut away any excess skin from turkey's neck. Place in a roasting pan with a rack, breast side down. Roast for 1 hour, then use tongs to turn breast side up, and roast 45 more minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the breast registers 170°F. Meanwhile, bring 1 1/2 cups of water and the butter to a boil; add stuffing mix and cranberries, and remove from heat. Let stand for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork and stir in almonds. Serve stuffing alongside turkey.
