This Classic Homemade Bread Stuffing recipe is the perfect side dish to your turkey dinner! It’s classic and everything you expect in a stuffing.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 3/4 cup chopped onion or shallots
  • 3/4 cup salted butter
  • 10 cups of dried bread cubes
  • 1 1/2 tsp dried sage
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 2 apples (peeled and chopped)
  • 1 cup chicken broth

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F.
  2. In a deep oven proof dish like an enamel pot, melt the butter over low-medium heat.
  3. Add the chopped celery and onions and cook until tender.
  4. Add the bread cubes, and mix until the bread is coated in the melted butter.
  5. Stir in the sage, thyme, salt, pepper, raisins and apples.
  6. If you find that your stuffing is too dry at this point, add some chicken broth until it’s how you want it. Sometimes I have to add up to one cup.
  7. Bake, covered, for 45 minutes.
  8. After 45 minutes, uncover and bake for 30 more minutes, stirring once or twice. The stuffing should be golden brown.
