Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a large baking dish.

  2. In a large skillet, melt a tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the celery, onions, and carrots. Sauté until the vegetables are soft and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed bread, dried cranberries, chopped pecans, garlic, sage, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well to distribute the ingredients evenly.

  4. Pour the sautéed vegetables over the bread mixture and toss to combine.

  5. Slowly pour the chicken broth over the bread mixture, stirring gently to moisten the bread without making it soggy. Add more broth if needed.

  6. Drizzle the melted butter over the dressing and mix until everything is well combined.

  7. Transfer the dressing to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

  8. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.

  9. Once done, remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving.
