Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 cups dry bread cubes (about 3 large loaves)
  • ½ cup butter
  • 2 cups diced onion
  • 2 cups diced celery
  • 3 teaspoons poultry seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon thyme
  • ½ teaspoon sage
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1½ cups chicken broth
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions

  1. Prepare the bread cubes by cutting them into cubes and letting them dry out overnight, or toast them in the oven until golden brown.
  2. Sauté the diced onions and celery in melted butter over medium heat until soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the dried bread cubes with the sautéed vegetables. Add poultry seasoning, thyme, sage, salt, and pepper. Gradually pour in chicken broth while stirring gently.
  4. Whisk eggs in a separate bowl before adding them to the stuffing mixture for binding.
