Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups gluten-free bread, cubed (about half a loaf, day-old works best)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced (about 1 cup)
  • 2 celery stalks, diced (about 1 cup)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1½ cups low-sodium chicken broth (vegetable broth works too)
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons fresh sage, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried poultry seasoning (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread the gluten-free bread cubes in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the cubes are lightly golden and dry to the touch.
  2. While the bread toasts, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and celery, and cook for 4-5 minutes until softened and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant. Remove from heat.
  3. In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the chicken broth and beaten egg until smooth.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the toasted bread cubes, sautéed vegetables, fresh sage, thyme, rosemary, poultry seasoning (if using), salt, and pepper. Toss gently to distribute evenly. Pour the broth-egg mixture over the top and toss again until all the bread cubes are evenly moistened.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a greased 9×13-inch baking dish and spread into an even layer. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15-18 minutes, until the top is golden brown and crispy. Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Toast the bread cubes first to prevent mushiness. For extra crispy edges, spread stuffing in a thinner layer. For softer stuffing, cover with foil for first 10 minutes of baking. Can be prepped ahead up to step 4 and refrigerated for 24 hours. Leftovers keep for 4 days in the refrigerator or freeze unbaked for up to 3 months.
