Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 loaf loaf of bread (preferably day-old, cut into cubes) Make sure the bread is dried out to prevent mushiness.
- 1 cup unsalted butter (melted) Use unsalted for better control over saltiness.
- 1 medium onion (diced)
- 2 cups celery (diced)
- 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth Adjust according to moisture preference.
- 1 tablespoon fresh sage (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
Instructions
Preparation
- Cut your loaf of bread into even cubes. If the bread isn't day-old, let the cubes dry out for several hours or overnight.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, add in the diced onion and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender and fragrant.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the dried bread cubes with the sautéed onion and celery mixture. Stir in the chopped herbs, salt, black pepper, and beaten eggs.
- Gradually pour in the chicken or vegetable broth while gently mixing everything to ensure the bread is well-coated.
- Lightly grease your slow cooker, pour the mixture in, and spread it out evenly.
- Cover the slow cooker and set it to low heat. Allow the stuffing to cook for about 4-6 hours.
- Once cooked, use a fork to fluff up the stuffing before serving.
