Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups (crumbled) Cornbread
- 2 cups (crumbled) Day-old bread
- 1 cup (unsalted) Butter
- 2 cups (finely chopped) Onions
- 2 cups (finely chopped) Celery
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- 4 large (beaten) Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Sage (dried)
- 1 teaspoon Poultry seasoning
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crumbled cornbread and day-old bread.
In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and celery, cooking until softened (about 5-7 minutes).
Pour the sautéed onions and celery along with the butter into the bread mixture, mixing well.
Add the beaten eggs, sage, poultry seasoning, salt, pepper, and 4 cups of chicken broth to the bread mixture. Stir until fully combined and the mixture is moist but not soupy. If it is too dry, add more chicken broth, 1/4 cup at a time.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the dressing is set and golden brown on top.
Let the dressing cool completely if you plan to freeze it. Divide into freezer-safe containers and label with the date. Store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
To reheat, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and warm in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through.
