TOTAL TIME:

1 hour

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 loaf (about 1 lb) day-old bread, cut into ½-inch cubes4 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 stalks celery, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, grated or minced
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme, chopped
  • 1 tsp fresh sage, chopped
  • Salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 2 Tbsp JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter
  • 2-4 oz gruyere cheese, shredded (optional)

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread bread cubes on a baking sheet and bake for 10–15 minutes until lightly toasted. Cool slightly, then transfer to a large bowl.
  2. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and celery and cook until softened, 8–10 minutes. Stir in garlic, thyme, and sage, and cook 1 minute more. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  3. In a medium bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together broth, eggs, and JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter until smooth and emulsified.
  4. Pour the sautéed vegetables over the bread cubes. Gradually pour the broth-JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter mixture over the bread, tossing gently to coat. Mix in cheese (if adding).
  5. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin. Spoon the stuffing mixture evenly into the cups, gently pressing down so they hold together but still have texture on top. Add a pinch of cheese on top.
  6. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until golden and crisp around the edges. Let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing. Serve warm with gravy or cranberry sauce. Yum!
