This classic stuffing recipe will complete just about any meal! Celery, onions, and butter are tossed with dried bread cubes, then topped with broth and baked until hot and golden.

Ingredients

  • 2 small yellow onions (diced)
  • 4 ribs celery (diced)
  • ⅔ cup butter
  • 1 ½ teaspoons poultry seasoning (or ½ teaspoon ground sage)
  • black pepper
  • salt to taste
  • 12 cups dry bread cubes
  • 2 to 4 cups chicken broth (see notes)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (or 2 teaspoons dry parsley)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh herbs (sage, thyme, and/or rosemary, or 1 teaspoon dry herbs)

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F.

  2. 2

    In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, celery and poultry seasoning (and rosemary if using). Reduce the temperature to medium low and cook until tender, about 10-12 minutes. Cool slightly.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, combine the bread cubes, onion mixture, parsley and fresh herbs. 

  4. 4

    Pour 1 cup of broth overtop and toss the cubes. Add the remaining broth, a little bit at a time until cubes are moist (but not soggy) and gently toss. You may not need all of the broth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Place the bread mixture in a baking dish, dot with additional butter if desired, and cover.

  6. 6

    Bake 35 minutes, uncover and bake an additional 10 minutes.
