Cook classic buttery herb stuffing in your slow cooker to save oven space for your holiday meal. This recipe produces moist stuffing with optional crispy edges.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 cups dry bread cubes (about 1 loaf)
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped
  • 4 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth

Instructions

  1. Place the bread cubes in a very large bowl.
  2. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and celery. Cook until softened, about 8 minutes.
  3. Stir the cooked vegetables, sage, thyme, salt, and pepper into the bread cubes.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and broth. Pour this mixture over the bread mixture and toss gently until the bread is evenly moistened.
  5. Transfer the stuffing mixture to a greased 6-quart slow cooker. Do not pack it down.
  6. Cover and cook on LOW for 3 to 4 hours, or on HIGH for 1.5 to 2 hours.
  7. For crispy edges, remove the lid for the last 30 minutes of cooking.

Notes

  • You can prepare the entire mixture, cover it, and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours before cooking. Add 1/4 cup extra broth if cooking from cold.
  • If you prefer a drier stuffing, reduce the broth by 1/4 cup.
  • For extra crispiness, transfer the cooked stuffing to a baking dish and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes after slow cooking.
