CORNBREAD STUFFING | easy, healthy, Thanksgiving recipe

Homemade cornbread stuffing is a delicious Thanksgiving staple. Made with real, simple, whole-food ingredients this recipe is both healthy and easy to make. I love the sweet bits of cranberries and savory bites of walnuts sprinkled throughout. You can make this stuffing ahead of time or the same day you plan to serve it.

I always thought homemade stuffing was difficult to make but that could not be further from the truth. It’s actually very easy. You have to start out with some homemade cornbread. This is the recipe I use for my stuffing: https://youtu.be/eLpQQSPZX2o but you can of course sub in any cornbread recipe you prefer.

CORNBREAD STUFFING RECIPE
6 cups cubed cornbread, this recipe cut into 1-inch squares
2 tablespoons pastured butter
1 medium onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
2 teaspoons fresh sage, chopped
1/2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
1 pastured egg, beaten
1.5 cups low sodium, chicken broth
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
salt and pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS
Pre-heat oven to 350 F.

Grease a 9x9 baking dish with butter, olive oil or coconut oil and set aside.

Prepare your cornbread. I like to bake my cornbread a day or two in advance so it's a bit dried out.

Cut your cornbread into 1-inch cubes and place in a large bowl. If you are baking your cornbread on the same day, place the cubes on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes to help dry them out a bit.

Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat and melt the butter.

Add in onions, celery, garlic, salt, and pepper. Sauté veggies for 6-8 minutes or until the onions are translucent and the veggies are tender.

Add in thyme, sage, and rosemary along with another hit of salt and pepper. Mix until everything is well combined. Shut off the heat and cool to room temperature.

Add cooled veggie mixture into the bowl with the cornbread along with the beaten egg, chicken broth, dried cranberries, and walnuts.

Season with a bit more salt and pepper and gently stir everything together.

Carefully transfer into a prepared baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes. You want the stuffing to be set through, lightly browned and super fragrant.

Serve hot or room temperature and enjoy!

NOTES
*If you want to keep this recipe dairy-free, swap the butter for coconut oil or olive oil.
*If you want to keep this recipe vegan or vegetarian, swap the butter for coconut oil or olive oil and swap the chicken broth for veggie broth.
*Herb shortcut: sub 1 teaspoon of poultry seasoning for all the fresh herbs.
