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!

Great Summer Recipes

You know it is the simple things in life that bring the most joy. That’s why I love Peanut Butter Pretzel Balls. Just three simple ingredients to bring a little joy to those taste buds.

justins almond butter ssamjang

At this point, I have to ask, “what CAN’T almond butter do?” This Korean-inspired Almond Butter Ssamjang (which translates to “sauce for wraps”) is a sweet, spicy, and perfectly salty sauce that is phenomenal in a lettuce wrap or just as a dip for fresh veggies.

Roasted Almond Butter and Maple Glazed Tofu, Squash and Brussels in a close up shot laid on white parchment paper

Roasted Almond Butter and Maple Glazed Tofu, Squash, and Brussels is a genuine triple threat. This dinner delight is vegetarian, full of flavor, and cooks in one pan. It doesn’t take your whole day to prepare either. At any given moment, you are thirty minutes of marinating, a few minutes of tossing ingredients together, and thirty minutes of hands-off roasting away from enjoying a flavor-packed, wholesome, vegetarian meal. Seriously. There’s really no downside to this recipe.
