🍞 Ingredients
1 tablespoon canola or olive oil
½ white or yellow onion, diced
1 celery stalk, diced
½ large carrot, diced
1 clove garlic, minced (or ½ teaspoon jarred)
1 egg, lightly beaten
1.5 cups low-sodium poultry or vegetable broth (or water)
5–6 cups whole-grain or sourdough bread*, cubed and dried overnight or in the oven
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Salt and pepper to taste
Herbs (fresh or dried): rosemary, parsley, chives, oregano
🍁 Directions
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Heat oil in a sauté pan over medium heat.
Add onion, celery, carrot, and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until lightly browned.
Transfer vegetables to a mixing bowl. Add broth and beaten egg; mix well.
Add dried bread cubes and seasonings. Mixture should be moist but not soupy—add more broth if needed. (Optional: add drippings from a roasted turkey.)
Butter a 9×9-inch baking dish with half the butter. Spread in the stuffing and top with remaining butter.
Bake 30–45 minutes, until golden and crisp on the edges. Internal temp should reach 145°F.
