A classic, savory herb stuffing recipe with sage and thyme, perfect for your holiday table.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound day-old bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
  • 2 cups chopped yellow onion (about 1 large)
  • 1 cup chopped celery (about 2 ribs)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the bread cubes on a baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until lightly toasted.
  2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and celery and cook until softened, about 8-10 minutes. Add the garlic, sage, and thyme and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the toasted bread cubes, the cooked onion and celery mixture, salt, and pepper.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the chicken broth and beaten eggs. Pour this mixture over the bread mixture and toss gently to combine.
  5. Transfer the stuffing to a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until heated through and the top is golden brown.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can use turkey broth instead of chicken broth.
  • If you prefer a moister stuffing, add an extra 1/2 cup of broth.
  • This stuffing can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 2 days. Bake as directed, adding a few extra minutes if needed.
