Ingredients
Scale
- 6 cups bread cubes
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh sage, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups chicken or turkey broth
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a large baking dish.
- In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onions and celery, cooking until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add sage, salt, and pepper, then stir in bread cubes.
- Pour in the broth and mix well until the bread is evenly moistened. If the mixture seems too dry, add more broth as needed.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and cover with foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for another 10-15 minutes until the top is golden and crispy.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Be sure to add enough broth so the bread cubes are fully moistened to avoid dry dressing.
- You can prepare the dressing a day ahead and refrigerate it. When ready to bake, simply heat it in the oven.
- For extra crispy edges, bake uncovered for the last few minutes of cooking.
