Homemade Herb Seasoned Cube Stuffing

---

Everything is better homemade; right down to the dry bread cubes for stuffing! Extra bonus is if you have a loaf of homemade sourdough that is a day old, it makes the most amazing cubes for stuffing.

There are many ways you can dry the cubes; some leave them out on the counter to dry and “stale,” but I prefer baking them so each cube is dried more evenly and thoroughly.

Homemade Herb Seasoned Cube Stuffing Recipe:

• 1 loaf sourdough bread (1 1/2 to 2 pounds) or bread of choice**

• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 1 teaspoon salt

• 1 teaspoon pepper

• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1 teaspoon onion powder

• 1 teaspoon ground sage

• 1 teaspoon ground thyme

• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

1. Heat oven to 275*

2. Cut bread into 1/2 to 1 inch cubes

3. Place cubed bread onto a rimmed baking sheet

4. Drizzle olive oil over cubes and sprinkle seasoning on top

5. Use your hands to make sure the oil and seasoning is evenly distributed over bread

6. Bake at 275* for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until bread is dry

7. Let cubes cool before transferring to an airtight container until ready to use (within a day or two) or they can also be frozen to use later

One loaf of sourdough will make approximately 8-9 cups of dried cubes

**This time will vary with the type of bread used, if it is fresh or older bread, and size of cubes;  just watch for the cubes to be dry to the touch and slightly browned.
