Scale
Ingredients
- Gluten-free cooking spray
- 1 (14-ounce) loaf gluten-free sandwich bread, cut into medium-sized cubes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup diced celery
- ½ teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon thyme
- 1 tablespoon sage
- 1 teaspoon rosemary
- 2 large eggs, whisked
- 2 cups gluten-free chicken broth
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 2.5-quart casserole dish with gluten-free cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Cube the Bread: Cut the gluten-free sandwich bread into medium-sized cubes, ensuring pieces are roughly uniform for even cooking.
- Sauté Vegetables: In a medium skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add diced celery and minced garlic, sautéing for 6-8 minutes until the celery is softened and fragrant.
- Mix Seasonings: Combine salt, onion powder, thyme, sage, and rosemary in a small bowl. Stir to blend all the spices evenly.
- Prepare Bread Mixture: Place the cubed bread in a large mixing bowl. Pour the seasoning blend and whisked eggs over the bread. Stir gently to combine the bread with the eggs and spices.
- Add Vegetables: Add the sautéed celery and garlic mixture into the bread bowl and stir to distribute evenly throughout the bread mixture.
- Moisten with Broth: Slowly pour the gluten-free chicken broth over the bread mixture, gently mixing until the bread is evenly moistened but not soggy.
- Transfer and Bake: Spoon the stuffing mixture into the prepared casserole dish, spreading it out evenly. Bake on the middle rack for 40-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and lightly crisp. Monitor closely as oven temperatures vary.
- Serve and Store: Serve the stuffing hot alongside your favorite dishes. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
