Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups cornbread crumbled
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 celery stalks diced
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 1/2 cup butter melted

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and celery, cooking until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the crumbled cornbread, sautéed onion and celery, dried sage, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the chicken broth and beaten eggs. Gradually pour this mixture over the cornbread mixture, stirring gently until combined.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish, spreading it evenly. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are crispy.
  6. Remove the dressing from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before serving.
