Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 cups chopped yellow onion
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 8 cups cubed day-old bread (about 1 pound)
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and celery and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the salt, pepper, sage, thyme, and rosemary.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the cubed bread with the onion and celery mixture.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the chicken broth and beaten eggs. Pour this mixture over the bread and vegetable mixture. Toss gently to coat the bread evenly.
  6. Spoon the stuffing mixture into the prepared muffin cups, pressing down lightly to form mounds.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the stuffing is heated through.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before carefully removing them.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can use a mix of different types of bread, such as cornbread or sourdough.
  • Additions like cooked sausage, cranberries, or chopped pecans can be stirred into the stuffing mixture before baking.
  • These stuffing muffins can be made a day in advance. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat them in the oven before serving.
