Ingredients
- 1 pound (454 g) gluten-free baguette, about 16 cups cubed
- ¼ cup (60 ml) olive oil
- 1 cup (143 g) diced red onion, or yellow onion, ¼" dice
- 1 cup (135 g) diced celery, ¼" dice
- 1 tablespoon (10 g) minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons (2 g) chopped sage
- 2 teaspoons (2 g) chopped rosemary
- 2 teaspoons chopped thyme
- 1 ½ teaspoon (9 g) kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons (2 g) chopped parsley
- 1 teaspoon (4 g) garlic powder
- 3 large eggs
- 3 cups (720 ml) unsalted vegetable stock
Instructions
- Toast Bread - Set the oven rack to the lower and upper-middle positions. Preheat to 350ºF (177ºC). Slice the bread into about ¾-inch cubes and then spread in a single layer on two large sheet pans. There should be about 16 cups of cubes.Toast the cubes in the oven until the edges are dry and crisp, about 10 minutes, gently stirring after 5 minutes. Allow to completely cool on the sheet pan while cooking the rest of the stuffing. The bread will completely dry out.
- Saute Aromatics - Heat a large 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil, and once hot, add the onions and celery. Saute until tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add sage, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper, stir and cook for 30 seconds.
- Combine Bread & Aromatics - Add the toasted bread to a large bowl. Transfer the sauteed aromatics to the bowl. Add parsley and garlic powder to the bread mixture and gently stir to combine.
- Soak Bread - In a measuring cup, whisk together the eggs and vegetable stock. Pour the liquid evenly over the bread. Gently stir to combine and allow the bread to soak for 5 minutes.
- Bake Stuffing - Set the oven rack to the middle position. Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray or olive oil. Evenly spread the stuffing mixture into the pan. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake until the internal temperature reaches at least 144ºF (62ºC) and the surface is slightly dry, about 15 to 20 minutes. Serve the stuffing warm.

- Using Dried Herbs: Use half the amount of the fresh herbs (sage, thyme, and rosemary), a total of 1 tablespoon dried.
- Make-Ahead: Cut and dry bread up to 5 days before using. Store in an airtight container. Combine all the stuffing ingredients, cover, refrigerate, and bake within 1 day. Bake covered for 30 minutes, then remove and bake until the internal temperature reaches at least 144ºF (62ºC) and the surface is dry.
