Ingredients
  

  • 1 Recipe Gigi’s Gluten Free Vegan “Buttermilk” Biscuits About twelve 2-inch biscuits or about 4 cups cubed bread
  • 1 Recipe Gigi’s Gluten Free Cornbread
  • 1 Tbsp Oil
  • 1 Cup Celery Cut into small dice
  • 1/2 Medium Sweet Onion Cut into small dice
  • 1 Cup Dried Cranberries Reconstituted in ½ cup warm water - optional
  • 5 Cloves Garlic Minced
  • 1/2 Tbsp Dried Ground Sage
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 1/2 Tsp Black Pepper
  • 3 Cups Broth Veggie broth for vegan OR other broth of your choice, either homemade or store-bought
  • 3 Eggs Or your choice of egg-free egg alternative

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350F.
  • Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
  • Crumble biscuits and cornbread into breadcrumbs. You will have about 8 cups of breadcrumbs. (You can do this in a large zip top bag with little mess.)
  • If frozen previously, there is no need to thaw the bread. Simply remove the frozen bread from fridge before sautéing the celery, onions, and garlic and allow to sit at room temperature until the veggies are ready.
  • Add oil to a skillet over medium heat; sautee onion and celery until tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Add garlic, cook, and stir for 2 minutes more. (Watch the garlic carefully, as it burns easy.)
  • Place the breadcrumbs in a large mixing bowl; add cooked veggies.
  • Add salt, pepper, and sage.
  • Stir in broth and eggs.
  • Spoon into prepared baking pan and bake approximately 45 minutes, or until set in center and golden brown around edges.
  • You may also use this for stuffing a turkey, if you like.

Notes

Biscuits and Cornbread can be made up to 1 month in advance and frozen in gallon zipper bags. To freeze: cool bread to room temperature, then place the cornbread in one bag and the biscuits in another. Knead through the bag to crumble the bread, then squeeze the air out of each bag and freeze. They will be ready to add to your stuffing when the holidays roll around!
