Crock Pot Stuffing: The Amazing Ultimate Recipe for 8 Servings


  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 35 minute

Ingredients

– 1 loaf of crusty bread, cubed (approximately 10 cups)
– 1 cup unsalted butter
– 1 cup diced onion
– 1 cup diced celery
– 3-4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon dried sage
– 1 tablespoon dried thyme
– 1 teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– 2-3 cups chicken or vegetable broth
– 2 large eggs, beaten
– Optional: 1 cup cooked sausage, chopped nuts, or dried fruit


Instructions

Creating this incredible Crock Pot Stuffing is straightforward. Follow these simple steps to ensure success:

1. Prepare the Bread: If your bread is not stale, cut it into cubes and let it sit out for a few hours to dry out.
2. Sauté the Vegetables: In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion, celery, and garlic. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Mix the Seasonings: Stir in the dried sage, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional minute to release the flavors.
4. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cubed bread, sautéed vegetables, and any additional ingredients (like sausage or fruit).
5. Add Broth and Eggs: Pour in the broth gradually, mixing until the bread is moist but not soggy. Add the beaten eggs and stir until evenly incorporated.
6. Transfer to Crock Pot: Lightly grease the crock pot and transfer the stuffing mixture inside.
7. Cook on Low or High: Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or on high for 2-3 hours until heated through and the flavors meld.
8. Check for Doneness: The stuffing should be fluffy and moist, with some crispy edges. If it appears too dry, add a bit more broth and stir gently.
9. Serve: Once cooked, fluff the stuffing with a fork before serving.

These straightforward steps will guide you in creating a delicious Crock Pot Stuffing that will impress everyone at your table.
