Ingredients

• 8 cups Cornbread, crumbled
• 4 cups Bread, cubed and toasted
• 1 cup Onion, finely chopped
• 1 cup Celery, finely chopped
• 1 cup Butter, melted
• 4 cups Chicken broth
• 3 large Eggs, beaten
• 2 teaspoons Poultry seasoning
• 1 teaspoon Sage, dried
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 application Cooking spray or butter (for greasing crockpot)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the cornbread a day ahead or use pre-made cornbread. Crumble it into fine pieces and measure out 8 cups.

Step 2

Toast slices of bread until golden brown and firm. Allow them to cool slightly, then cut into cubes and measure out 4 cups.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the crumbled cornbread and toasted bread cubes.

Step 4

Add the finely chopped onion and celery to the bread mixture.

Step 5

Melt the butter and pour it over the mixture to coat evenly. Toss gently to combine.

Step 6

In a separate bowl, whisk together chicken broth, beaten eggs, poultry seasoning, dried sage, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 7

Gradually pour the liquid mixture into the bread mixture, stirring to combine. Ensure the mixture is moist but not overly soupy. Add more broth if needed.

Step 8

Spray the crockpot with cooking spray or grease with butter to prevent sticking.

Step 9

Transfer the dressing mixture into the crockpot, spreading it evenly.

Step 10

Cover and cook on LOW for 4–5 hours or until the dressing is set and the edges are slightly crisp.

Step 11

Check halfway through cooking and give it a light stir if needed to prevent it from sticking to the sides.

Step 12

When finished, serve hot as a flavorful side dish for roasted turkey, chicken, or ham!
