Vegan Cornbread Stuffing

Recipe The Best Vegan Cornbread

vegan butter

sweet onion, chopped

celery,

fresh parsley, finely chopped, divided

sage

thyme

salt

vegetable broth

Make the vegan cornbread, preferably a day in advance. Let it cool for at least an hour, or overnight.

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Slice the cornbread into 1-2 inch cubes, and place them on a baking sheet. Bake for about 30 minutes, so they can dry out and become a bit toasty. Remove from the oven and set aside while you prepare the other ingredients.

Prepare the Cornbread

Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees F and lightly grease a 9 x 13 inch casserole dish.

Heat the vegan butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Saute the onion and celery for 2-3 minutes, then add in 1/4 cup of the parsley, sage (1/2 tsp), thyme (1/2 tsp), salt (1/2 tsp) and the vegetable broth (2 1/2 cups). Bring to a boil and stir. Once boiling, remove from heat and set aside.

Add the cornbread cubes to the casserole dish, evenly. Pour the broth/vegetable mixture over the cornbread cubes, and stir slightly. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until toasted on top. Sprinkle the rest of the parsley on top and serve immediately.

vegan

bread

vegan sausage (, crumbled (optional))

avocado oil

vegan butter (+ more for greasing dish)

onion (, diced)

celery

garlic (, minced)

sage (, chopped (sub 2 teaspoons ground))

thyme (, chopped (sub 1 teaspoon dried))

rosemary (, chopped (sub 1 teaspoon dried))

vegetable broth (, reduced sodium (more if needed))

cranberries

parsley (, chopped)

Salt and Pepper (,

Preheat oven to 350 °F (177 °C). (*If your bread cubes are already dried, you can skip this and the following step)

Spread cornbread cubes and artisan bread cubes onto a large baking tray or 2 smaller trays (don&#39;t overcrowd or they won&#39;t dry quickly). Bake until they are dry and toasted. About 25-30 minutes. Stir occasionally for even drying and watch carefully so they don&#39;t burn or get overly brown. Remove from oven, then let them cool. Now place them in a large mixing bowl and set aside. (See note for drying alternative)

Increase heat to 375 °F (190 °C). Lightly grease a 3-quart baking dish and set aside.

Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Once shimmering, add the sausage and cook until golden brown. About 2-4 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside on a paper-towel-lined plate.

Place pan back on the stove and melt the butter over medium heat. Add onion, and celery, then sauté until softened. About 5-6 minutes.

Add garlic, sage, thyme, and rosemary. Sauté for 30-60 seconds, until fragrant. 

Stir in only 1 cup of broth to combine.  Remove from heat and add the mixture to the bowl of bread cubes. Gently toss to combine and let it rest for a minute. (the cornbread will crumble a little bit which is ok)

Now start slowly pouring another cup of broth over the cubes and toss gently to combine. Let it sit another minute before slowly adding the remaining broth or until moisture preference is achieved. The bread should be very moist, but not soggy, and there shouldn&#39;t be liquid pooling at the bottom.

Now add the cooked sausage, cranberries, parsley, salt, and pepper. Toss gently to combine. Taste for seasoning and add more if needed.

Place mixture into your prepared baking dish and wrap tightly in foil. Place in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes until heated throughout. 

Remove foil and bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes or until lightly brown and crispy on top.  Let sit 10 minutes before serving.
