Ingredients
– 13 to 15 cups dry bread cubes (about 2 1-pound loaves, preferably heavier white bread such as French or Italian bread)
– 1 1/2 cups unsalted butter
– 1 cup chopped celery
– 1 cup diced yellow onion
– 2 1/4 teaspoons salt
– 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
– 1 1/2 tablespoons poultry seasoning (contains sage, thyme, marjoram, nutmeg, black pepper)
– 1 1/2 cups chicken stock (low sodium preferred)
– 2 large eggs
Instructions
1-First Step: Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 2-quart casserole dish or a 9×13-inch baking pan.
2-Second Step: Sauté onion and celery in butter over medium-high heat for 10-12 minutes, until tender. Stir as needed so the onion softens but does not burn.
3-Third Step: Place bread cubes in a large bowl. Pour the butter, onion, and celery mixture over the bread and mix well so the cubes start soaking evenly.
4-Fourth Step: Add salt, black pepper, poultry seasoning, chicken stock, and eggs. Mix thoroughly until the liquid is distributed and the mixture looks evenly moistened.
5-Final Step: Spread the Turkey Dressing evenly in the prepared dish. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown. Optionally garnish with fresh parsley or herbs like rosemary before serving.

🥖 Dry bread cubes overnight or bake at low heat for best texture absorption without sogginess.
🔗 Eggs act as a binder – whisk them well for even distribution and perfect hold.
