Simple and delicious sourdough stuffing starts with homemade sourdough bread toasted in butter and combined with veggies and bone broth.

Ingredients

  • 1 small round sourdough bread (1 pound)
  • 1 stick salted butter
  • 3 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 Tbsp chopped fresh sage or 1 tsp dried
  • 1 Tbsp chopped fresh thyme or 1 tsp dried
  • 3 cups homemade chicken broth
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare and bake homemade sourdough bread, if making from scratch.

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven to 350 F.

  3. 3

    Add half of the butter to a baking dish (or cast iron skillet) and place in the oven to melt.

  4. 4

    Cut the crusty sourdough bread into 1-inch cubes.

  5. 5

    Take out the baking dish from the oven and toss the melted butter with the bread.

  6. 6

    Bake for 20 minutes, stirring halfway in between so the bread cubes don’t get burnt, but rather get nice and toasty.

  7. 7

    Dice onions and celery.

  8. 8

    Sauté onions and celery over medium heat in a skillet with the remaining butter until they are a little soft, around 5-10 minutes.

  9. 9

    Add salt and pepper.

  10. 10

    Pull the toasted bread out of the oven.

  11. 11

    In a large bowl, add bone broth and eggs and whisk together.

  12. 12

    Add the vegetable mixture and herbs to the broth mixture and mix well.

  13. 13

    Pour the broth and vegetable mixture over the toasted bread and let it sit for 10 minutes to allow bread to soak up the eggs and broth.

  14. 14

    Bake for 25-30 minutes, until it starts to turn golden brown.
