Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cornbread: Bake your favorite gluten-free cornbread and let it cool completely. Cut into 1-inch cubes. For best results, let it dry overnight.
  2. Dry the Cornbread: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread the cornbread cubes onto a sheet pan and bake for 10-15 minutes, until slightly dry but not browned.
  3. Cook the Vegetables: Heat olive oil (or butter) in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and celery; cook for 5-7 minutes, until softened. Stir in garlic, sage, thyme, rosemary, parsley, salt, and pepper; cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Mix the Stuffing: In a large mixing bowl, combine the dried cornbread cubes, cooked vegetables, and parsley (if using). Whisk the broth with the orange juice, orange zest, and eggs and gradually pour over the mixture, tossing gently to combine.
  5. Bake the Stuffing: Transfer to a greased 9x9-inch casserole dish, cover with foil, and bake at 350°F for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the top is golden and slightly crisp.
  6. Serve: Let the stuffing rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra parsley if desired.

Notes

  • For best results, we recommend you make our gluten-free cornbread for this recipe (dairy-free option).
  • 9x12 pan: For larger crowds, double the recipe and reduce the broth by ½ cup.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat covered with foil at 350°F to maintain moisture.
  • Recipe Tip:
  • Make Ahead: You can make this recipe a day in advance. Assemble the stuffing, then before baking, cover with foil or plastic wrap and place in the fridge. When ready to serve, bake it as instructed. 
  • Gradually add the broth to avoid soggy stuffing, and let the mixture rest before baking to evenly absorb the moisture.
  • Double the recipe and bake in two casserole dishes for larger gatherings.
  • Use leftovers to make stuffing muffins or mix them into a savory breakfast hash.
