A classic Thanksgiving dressing that brings warmth and nostalgia, perfect for soaking up gravy and complementing turkey.

  • Total Time: 55 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 cups stale bread cubes (sourdough or French)
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 3 stalks celery, diced
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 tsp dried sage
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tbsp poultry seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a large baking dish.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, melt half the butter. Sauté onions and celery until soft (about 5 minutes).
  3. In a large bowl, combine stale bread cubes with sautéed veggies and add sage, thyme, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  4. Gradually pour chicken broth over the mixture until moistened but not soggy.
  5. Transfer to the baking dish, dot with remaining butter, cover with foil, and bake for 30 minutes.
  6. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Allow cooling slightly before serving.

Notes

Ensure your bread cubes are stale; they will absorb the broth better. If you don’t have stale bread, dry fresh bread cubes in the oven for a few minutes.
