Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (8.5 ounce) package cornbread mix
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 large egg, beaten

Instructions

  1. Prepare cornbread according to package directions. Let cool completely, then crumble into large pieces.
  2. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and celery, and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in salt and pepper. Add crumbled cornbread and cranberries to the skillet.
  4. Gradually pour in chicken broth, tossing gently to moisten the cornbread.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk the egg. Pour over the stuffing mixture and toss to combine.
  6. Transfer the stuffing to a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
  7. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until heated through and lightly golden on top.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can use a homemade cornbread recipe.
  • If using frozen cranberries, do not thaw before adding to the stuffing.
  • You can add chopped pecans or walnuts for extra crunch.
  • For a vegetarian option, use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
