Just Like Mom's Old Fashioned Stuffing

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray a 9 x 13 casserole dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium high heat and saute the celery, onion and spices until the vegetables are soft, about 8 minutes.

Step 3

In a large bowl, beat the eggs, then add the sauted vegetables and stir in the stuffing mix and broth until completely moistened. Pour mixture into the prepared casserole and bake for 1 hour until puffy and golden brown, but the center is completely cooked. (Test with a toothpick or knife in the center it should come out clean with no liquid attached.)

Step 4

Optional: About 15 minutes before stuffing is completely done baking, chop 2 tablespoons butter into small bits and drop it over the surface or, if you have it available, spoon 2 tablespoons of drippings from a roasting chicken or turkey over the top and finish baking.
