Gluten-Free Thanksgiving Dressing
Thanksgiving isn't complete without dressing on the table. Make this gluten-free, flavorful twist on a classic recipe. We make it every year now!
Prep Time 10 minutes mins
Cook Time 40 minutes mins
- 1 loaf cornbread (See the homemade recipe below)
- 1 loaf gluten-free bread (We love Base Culture white bread!)
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted grass-fed butter
- 1 large onion diced
- 7 stalks celery diced
- 2 tbsp fresh sage chopped
- 1 tbsp rosemary chopped
- 1 tsp dry thyme
- 1 tsp salt
- fresh cracked pepper
- 4 cups organic chicken broth
- 3 eggs whisked
The Night Before:
The day before serving, bake the cornbread. Once cooled, cut or tear into cubes and lay on a sheet pan to dry out. Cut the loaf of white bread into similar-sized pieces and mix in with the cornbread. This helps the bread absorb all of the herbs and broth the next day.
To Cook and Assemble:
In a large sauce pan or pot, melt 1 stick of butter over medium hight heat. Add in the onion and celery. Stir around to coat with butter and sauté for 5 minutes until the vegetables start to turn translucent. Add in the sage, rosemary, thyme, salt, and a few good turns of fresh cracked pepper. Mix well.
Pour in 4 cups of chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Cut off the heat.
Add all of the breadcrumbs to a large mixing bowl and pour over the 3 whisked eggs. Stir around.
Slowly pour over the veggies and broth. Gently stir around. Be careful not to stir too much. You don't want to bread the bread up into tiny crumbs.
Spray a 9x13in pan with organic olive oil or avocado spray. Evenly spread the filling throughout.
Bake in a 375-degree oven for 40 minutes, until golden brown.
