2 cups high-quality chicken/turkey broth (plus 1/2 cup more if necessary)
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon butter (softened, for greasing pan)
Instructions
Begin by tearing or cutting your loaf of bread into bite-size pieces, about 1-2 inches. Spread pieces onto a dry pan and bake at 250°F for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
While your bread is toasting, chop the onion until you have about 3 and 1/2 cups. Chop the celery into a 1/4 inch dice.
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Add 2 sticks of butter (1 cup) to a large skillet over medium heat. Once melted, add all the celery and onions. Sauté these together for about 7–10 minutes until soft but not browned.
Chop your herbs finely so they can distribute evenly throughout the stuffing.
In a large bowl, add all toasted bread pieces along with chopped herbs and sautéed onion-celery mixture. Stir in salt and pepper.
In another bowl or measuring cup, whisk together 2 cups of broth with 2 eggs. Pour this mixture gradually over the bread while mixing with your hands until evenly moistened but not soaked.
Grease the sides and bottom of your baking pan with about 1 tablespoon softened butter. Transfer your stuffing mixture into this pan.
Cover the stuffing with foil and bake at 350°F for about 40 minutes.
Remove foil after initial baking time and continue baking for another 25–35 minutes until golden brown on top.
