Delicious Bread Stuffing with Apples for Cozy Gatherings
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds Gluten-Free Bread (homemade preferred)
- 9.5 tablespoons Butter (divided for sautéing and greasing)
- 3 large Eggs
- 3 stalks Celery (diced)
- 1 medium Onion (diced)
- 0.33 cups Fresh Parsley (minced)
- 1.5 teaspoons Dried Sage
- 0.75 teaspoons Dried Thyme
- 0.75 teaspoons Dried Marjoram
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Pepper
- 1 Apple (peeled and diced)
- 2 cups Gluten-Free Chicken Broth
Instructions
- Begin by cutting the gluten-free bread into ½-inch cubes. Spread the cubes out on baking sheets to dry at room temperature for 24 hours or toast in the oven at 225°F for 30-40 minutes.
- While the bread is drying, grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with ½ tablespoon of butter. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- In a large skillet, melt 6 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the diced celery and onion, sautéing for 8-10 minutes until soft and translucent.
- Stir in the minced parsley, dried sage, thyme, marjoram, salt, and pepper, cooking for an additional minute. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and egg yolk. Add the dried bread cubes, diced apple, sautéed vegetables, and chicken broth. Gently stir to combine.
- Pour the stuffing mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Drizzle any remaining melted butter over the top and cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake the covered dish in the preheated oven for 25 minutes to steam the stuffing.
- Remove the foil and return to the oven for an additional 20-25 minutes until the top is golden brown and crispy.
Notes
- This stuffing pairs well with roasted meats.
- You can add nuts for extra texture.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
