Notes

  • In our family, we use Jiffy cornbread that we make the night before and let sit out to use the next day. This is a sweet cornbread but you can use unsweet if you desire.
  • The amount of turkey stock will depend greatly on how dry your bread is. That is why there is not a precise amount.
  • You can use 1-2 teaspoons of dried sage in place of fresh sage.
  • You can use vegetable stock instead of meat stock if desired.
