Adapted from Brown's Guide to Georgia. This is our favorite dressing at Thanksgiving. Bake separately in a pan, then cut into squares to serve or spoon right from the pan. Time does not include making corn bread. I have used packaged cornbread stuffing but I think it is better with the homemade. Either works however. If you use preseasoned stuffing mix, you will need to cut back on the salt and adjust other seasonings to your taste.
Ingredients:
3 cups cornbread, crumbled
2 -2 1/2 cups dry bread, crumbled
5 cups turkey broth or 5 cups chicken stock
2 -3 eggs
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 onion, chopped fine
1/4 cup celery, finely chopped
1/2 tablespoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 tablespoon dried sage or 1/2 tablespoon poultry seasoning
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. Mix breads, add eggs and other ingredients.
3. Mix well and continue to add broth until mixture is the consistency of cake batter or thick soup. (Really soupy - it will cook dry.).
4. Bake in greased baking dish for about 40 minutes.
