Instructions

For the Cornbread

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the eggs, milk, and butter. Pour the liquid mixture into the cornmeal mixture and fold together until there are no dry spots (the batter will still be lumpy). Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
  4. Bake until the top is golden brown and tester inserted into the middle of the cornbread comes out clean, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before serving.

For the Dressing

  1. Preheat oven to 400F and butter or grease a 9x13 baking dish or, a 3-quart dish of any shape.
  2. Coarsely crumble the cooled cornbread and place crumbles on a baking sheet. Bake cornbread crumbles for 8-10 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes until crumbles are toasted evenly. Remove from oven and set aside.
  3. Reduce oven temperature to 325F and grease or spray a casserole baking dish.
  4. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook sausage, celery, and chopped onion for 8-10 minutes, until the sausage is thoroughly cooked, making sure to break up the meat into small pieces throughout. Spoon cooked sausage into a large bowl, leaving any oil behind.
  5. To the large bowl, add crumbled cornbread, finely chopped parsley and seasoning. Toss to combine. Add the chicken broth and beaten egg and combine.
  6. Next, spoon cornbread and sausage mixture into the casserole dish and cover.
  7. Bake in your preheated oven for about 45 minutes. In the final 10 minutes, remove the cover to brown the top.

Notes

  • For the 4 cups crumbled cornbread you can use the recipe below or 1-package of your favorite cornbread muffin mix according to package directions. After it has cooled, coarsely crumble it with your hands and place crumbles inside a baking sheet. Toast in a preheated oven for 400F for 8-10 minutes, making sure to stir once until lightly browned.
  • Don’t have poultry seasoning? Add ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, ¼ teaspoon ground thyme, ¼ teaspoon sage, ¼ teaspoon marjoram (substitute cumin if not available).
