Ingredients
- 6 cups cubed day stale bread
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley
- 1/4 cup minced dried onion
- 1/8 cup dried celery flakes
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried sage
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
To Make the Stuffing from the mix
- 1 1/4 cup water or broth
- 2 tablespoons butter
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Spread out cubed bread evenly on a large baking sheet (or two if needed) and bake for approximately 10 minutes until dry.
- Meanwhile, in a large ziplock plastic bag, mix all the dried seasonings and shake.
- When cubed bread is done, add to ziplock bag and shake to combine well.
- Split mixture in half and store in an airtight container for up to 1 week in pantry or 6 months in the freezer. Each mixture is equivalent to 2 6 oz boxed stuffing mixes.
To Make Stuffing
- In a medium sauce pan, bring water and butter to a boil. Add one container of mix (about 3 cups) and stir well. Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes. Fluff with fork and serve. Salt as needed / desired.
Notes
- Dried Celery Flakes: This one can be hard to find in the store. You can of course dehydrate your own celery, but also you can do the following:
- Fresh Celery - Substitute 3/4 cup of minced fresh celery. This just means that it's not shelf-stable and I would just add to the mix before cooking. Note that the size of the fresh celery will affect how quickly it softens. It will most likely still be a bit crunchy as the stuffing is an instant style stuffing with just hot water being added.
- Celery Salt - Add 1 teaspoon of celery salt in place of dried celery flakes. Note that this will affect the salt level of the stuffing.
- Not a huge fan of celery anyway? You can absolutely omit it.
- Make your own bread! Here are all of our bread recipes.
- Make your own dried onions!
