Sage & Onion Stuffing Mix from Scratch
Prep Time:5 minutes
Total Time:5 minutes

Ingredients

  • 200 g homemade dried coarse breadcrumbs
  • 4 tsp dried sage
  • 6 Tbsp dried onion flakes
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Place the homemade dried breadcrumbs into a large bowl.
  • Add the dried sage, onion flakes, and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Stir well until the seasoning is evenly distributed throughout the breadcrumbs.
  • Transfer the stuffing mix to a clean, airtight jar.
  • Condition the breadcrumbs during the first week of storage before storing long term (see Stacey's Kitchen Tips above).

How to Cook the Stuffing

  • Combine 200g of Sage & Onion Stuffing Mix with approximately ¾ cup hot chicken stock or warm water, stirring until the breadcrumbs are evenly moistened and holds together.
  • Allow the mixture to stand for 5 minutes before transferring to a greased baking dish or using it to stuff poultry. I like to shape mine into a log and then wrap in foil.
  • Bake at 170°C for 20-25 minutes, or until lightly golden on top and heated through.
