Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cornbread

    If not using pre-made cornbread, bake cornbread according to your recipe or package instructions. Allow to cool, then crumble into a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Bread

    Tear the white bread into small pieces and add it to the bowl with the crumbled cornbread.

Cooking the Vegetables

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the diced celery, onion, and green bell pepper. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Mixing Ingredients

    Combine Ingredients

    In the bowl with the cornbread and white bread, add the sautéed vegetables, dried sage, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.

  2. 5

    Add Liquids

    Pour in the chicken broth, beaten egg, and melted butter. Stir until the mixture is evenly moistened and combined.

Baking

    Prepare for Baking

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.

    Transfer the dressing mixture to the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and slightly crispy.
