Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 cups dry bread cubes
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 2 cups onion, 1/2-inch diced
  • 2 cups celery, 1/2-inch diced
  • 3 teaspoons poultry seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon sage
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1½ cups chicken broth
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cut 16 cups day-old bread into 3/4 to 1-inch cubes. Spread on baking sheets and dry in a 275°F (135°C) oven for 25-35 minutes, or air-dry overnight, until firm. Transfer to a large bowl.
  2. In a large pot, melt 1/2 cup butter over medium heat. Add 2 cups diced onion and 2 cups diced celery. Sauté for 15-20 minutes until softened.
  3. Stir in 3 teaspoons poultry seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon thyme, 1/2 teaspoon sage, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Pour the sautéed mixture over the dried bread cubes. Toss gently to coat.
  5. Whisk together 1½ cups warmed chicken broth and 2 large beaten eggs. Gradually pour over the bread mixture, tossing gently until moistened. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  6. Transfer mixture to a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Cover with foil and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 25-35 minutes, or until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  7. Let rest for 10-15 minutes before serving. Garnish with 1 tablespoon chopped parsley.

Notes

  • Make ahead: Assemble the stuffing mixture and store in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 days before baking.
  • For crispy edges, bake in a larger, shallower pan.
  • Add sautéed mushrooms for a deeper flavor.
  • This stuffing pairs well with turkey, chicken, or pork.
  • Leftovers can be frozen for up to 3 months.
