Preparation and cooking overview
To make this delightful Keto Stuffing, begin by preparing the Keto "Cornbread" and toasting the cubes in the oven. Meanwhile, sauté your onions and celery, and season with fresh herbs, salt, and pepper before combining them with the toasted cornbread. This whole process, including baking the stuffing in the oven until golden, should take you around 3 hours in total.
Chef's note
In this recipe, it's essential to ensure your "cornbread" is thoroughly dried out to soak up the flavorful broth and egg mixture effectively, resulting in a stuffing that is moist but not soggy. Don't rush the sautéing of the onions and celery; taking the time to soften them properly will deepen the overall flavor of the stuffing.

- Sauté the onion and celery: Heat the butter in a large 10.5" skillet over medium heat. Once the butter is hot, add the onion and celery. Cook for 10 minutes until softened.
- Add the herbs, salt, and pepper: Stir the minced parsley, sage, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper into the onion and celery mixture.

- Serve: Once it is cooked and golden on top, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Sprinkle some fresh parsley or toppings of your choice and enjoy a warm, delicious side dish.
Chef's pro tip
To enhance the flavor of your recipe, consider toasting the herbs and spices lightly in the skillet with the onion and celery mixture for a couple of minutes before adding the cornbread cubes. This will help release their natural oils and bring out a deeper, more aromatic flavor, giving an extra touch of deliciousness.
