Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 60 minutes
Servings: 4
Makes about 6 cups
Ingredients
- cup firmly packed diced whole grain bread
- piece medium yellow onion, diced small
- piece celery, diced small
- teaspoon fresh minced sage
- teaspoon fresh minced rosemary
- piece sea salt
- cup toasted pecans, finely chopped
- cup currants
- dash freshly ground pepper
- cup low sodium vegetable broth
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
- Place the diced bread on a baking sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly browned. Set aside.
- Sauté the onion and celery over medium heat for 8 to 9 minutes. Add water 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time to keep the vegetables from sticking. Add the bread cubes and the onion mixture to a mixing bowl with the sage, rosemary, salt to taste, pecans, currants and black pepper. Mix well and drizzle the vegetable broth over the mixture to moisten.
- Transfer the mixture to a non-stick baking pan and refrigerate 1 hour for the bread crumbs to soak up all the broth.
- Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until browned and still slightly moist.
