Make classic, flavorful stuffing in your slow cooker to save oven space during holiday cooking. This recipe features buttery richness and traditional herbs for a crowd-pleasing side dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) bag dry bread cubes (about 12 cups)
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and celery. Cook until soft, about 8 minutes.
  2. Stir in the dried sage, thyme, salt, and pepper into the skillet mixture. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Place the dry bread cubes in a very large bowl. Pour the buttered vegetable mixture over the bread cubes. Toss gently to coat.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the chicken broth and eggs. Pour this liquid mixture over the bread cubes. Add the fresh parsley. Toss everything until the bread is evenly moistened.
  5. Lightly grease the inside of a 6-quart slow cooker. Transfer the stuffing mixture to the slow cooker. Do not pack it down tightly.
  6. Cover and cook on LOW for 3 to 4 hours, or on HIGH for 1.5 to 2 hours. The stuffing is done when it is heated through.
  7. For crispy edges, remove the lid for the last 30 minutes of cooking time. Stir gently before serving.

Notes

  • For best results, use day-old or dried bread cubes.
  • If you prefer a richer flavor, substitute half of the chicken broth with turkey broth.
  • You can prepare the entire mixture, including the liquid, one day ahead. Store covered in the refrigerator and add 30 minutes to the cooking time.
