Sourdough Stuffing
This sourdough stuffing blends crispy toasted sourdough bread cubes with sautéed onions, garlic, celery, mushrooms, and a fragrant mix of fresh sage, rosemary, thyme, and parsley. The bread absorbs a flavorful vegetable broth mixture, resulting in a moist interior and a golden, slightly crisp top after baking. It offers a hearty texture and herbal aroma, making it a satisfying side dish for holiday meals or family dinners.
Ingredients
- 1 sourdough about 12 cups loosely packed, loaf
- 4 Tablespoons vegan butter regular butter works too
- 1 yellow onion peeled and chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup celery chopped
- 8 oz package baby bella mushroom chopped
- 3 Tablespoons sage chopped, fresh leaves
- 2 Tablespoons rosemary chopped, fresh
- 2 Tablespoons thyme chopped, fresh
- ¼ cup parsley chopped, fresh
- ½ teaspoon salt plus more to taste, sea salt
- ½ teaspoons black pepper plus more to taste, ground
- 3 cups vegetable broth
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cut sourdough bread into 1-inch cubes and spread it evenly on lined baking sheets. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until bread is completely dry and starts to crisp up and get golden brown. Remove from oven and transfer to a large bowl to cool.
- While bread is in the oven, heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic and celery and sauté until onion is fragrant and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add mushrooms and cook for another 6-8 minutes, until mushrooms cook down, start to brown and liquid starts to evaporate.
- Add sage, thyme, rosemary, parsley, salt and pepper to the pan and saute for 1 minutes. Add broth and stir to combine. Turn off heat.
- Pour liquid mixture over sourdough cubes and stir to combine and fully coat bread cubes.
- Transfer mixture into a prepared 9x13 baking dish and bake for 35-45 minutes, until top is golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Store leftover stuffing in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3–4 days.
- Reheat in the oven to help crisp the sourdough bread cubes again; microwave or stovetop reheating is also possible.
