Description
A delicious and savory Classic Gluten-Free Thanksgiving Stuffing recipe, perfect for your holiday feast. This stuffing delivers all the traditional flavors without the gluten.
Ingredients
1 loaf gluten-free bread, cubed and dried
1/2 cup butter (or dairy-free alternative)
2 cups chopped celery
1 cup chopped onion
1 tsp dried sage
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 tsp salt
2 cups gluten-free chicken or vegetable broth
1 large egg, lightly beaten (optional, for binding)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). If the bread isn’t already dried, spread cubes on a baking sheet and bake 10–15 minutes until lightly golden and firm; set aside.
2. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, melt butter over medium heat. Add celery and onion; cook 8–10 minutes until softened.
3. Stir in sage, thyme, black pepper, and salt; cook 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Add dried gluten-free bread cubes to the skillet. Pour in gluten-free broth and the beaten egg (if using); toss gently until evenly moistened.
5. Transfer to a 9×13-inch baking dish. Bake covered for a moister stuffing or uncovered for a crisper top.
6. Bake 30 minutes; then uncover (if covered) and bake 10–15 minutes more, until the top is golden and crisp.
7. Serve hot.
Notes
For extra flavor, add cooked crumbled sausage or chopped apples.
Dry the bread cubes a day in advance to save time.
Adjust seasoning to taste. This recipe is naturally gluten-free and easily dairy-free with plant-based butter.
