Ingredients

Scale

10 cups stale bread, cubed (mix of white and whole grain)
2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 large onion, finely chopped
3 stalks celery, diced
2 tsp fresh sage, chopped
2 tsp fresh thyme, chopped
1 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped
2 large eggs
½ cup unsalted butter

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a large baking dish with nonstick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine cubed stale bread. If using fresh bread, toast in the oven for about 15 minutes until dried.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add chopped onion and diced celery; sauté for about 5 minutes until tender.
Pour the sautéed vegetables over the bread cubes. Add fresh herbs, salt, pepper, broth, and eggs. Mix gently until combined but not mushy.
Transfer the mixture into the greased baking dish and spread evenly.
Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until golden brown on top.
