Base Ingredients
- 14 ounces Day-old bread, cubed
- 0.5 cup Butter
- 1 medium Onion, chopped
- 2 stalks Celery, chopped
- 2 cups Chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon Fresh sage, chopped

Preparation

- Spread the cubed bread on a baking sheet and toast for 10-15 minutes until lightly golden; set aside.
Cooking
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat, then add onion and celery, cooking until softened (about 5-7 minutes).
- Stir in the fresh sage, salt, and pepper, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Transfer the toasted bread cubes to a large bowl, pour the vegetable mixture over them, and gently toss to combine.
- Gradually add the chicken or vegetable broth, mixing until the bread is moistened to your desired consistency.
- Transfer the stuffing mixture to the prepared baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes until the top is golden brown and crispy.
Notes
For extra flavor, consider adding sautéed mushrooms, cooked sausage, or dried cranberries to your stuffing. You can also experiment with different herbs like thyme or rosemary. If you prefer a moister stuffing, add a bit more broth; for a crispier top, bake uncovered for the entire duration.
