Sourdough Mushroom Herb Stuffing

I don’t know about you, but stuffing is my favorite dish for Thanksgiving. I even liked the box stuffing when I used to make that. However, since I’ve cleaned up my diet more, I needed to come up with a healthier one that didn’t sacrifice on flavor. Enter this sourdough mushroom herb stuffing. It’s gluten-free, egg-free, vegan, and is packed with lots of fresh herbs for plenty of flavor. The sourdough bread gives it a rich tangy flavor, so if sourdough is not your thing, you can always substitute for a different bread. The plentiful mushrooms make this dish hearty enough to be served as a main dish. Serve alongside a large salad, some cranberries, cauliflower mashed potatoes, a sweet potato, and some green beans for the full shebang.

Sourdough Mushroom Herb Stuffing Recipe

Serves 4-6

Ingredients

• 1 classic gluten-free sourdough Bread SRSLY loaf or 6-7 cups of your choice of bread, roughly cubed
  • I’ve tried this with other bread however, and the SRSLY tastes the best by far.
• 2 shallots, finely chopped
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tbsp. vegetable broth plus 2 more cups of vegetable broth
• 1 tbsp. vegan butter, plus more to butter the dish, optional
• 16 oz. organic brown mushrooms, sliced
• 2 large ribs of celery, halved and thinly sliced
• 1 leak, halved and thinly sliced
• 3 tbsp. fresh parsley, roughly chopped
• 1 tbsp. fresh thyme
• 1 tbsp. fresh rosemary, roughly chopped
• 2 tbsp. fresh sage, roughly chopped
• 1 tsp fennel seed, finely chopped
• 1 cup fresh cranberries or 1/2 cup dried unsweetened cranberries, optional
• sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

Directions

Dry out the bread: Preheat the oven to 300. Roughly cube 1 loaf of Bread SRSLY classic sourdough bread or 6-7 cups of your choice of bread. Lay cubed bread evenly on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 300 degrees for about 25 minutes, flipping halfway, until the bread dries out a bit. Once ready, let the pan sit out of the oven while you prepare and chop the other ingredients. If you already have stale bread, you can skip this step.

1. Turn the oven up to 375 after the bread is out.
2. In a large skillet, sauté 1 shallot and 2 minced garlic cloves in 2 tbsp. of vegetable broth over medium to medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes until the shallots are translucent.
3. Put in 1 tbsp. of vegan butter and let it melt for about 20 seconds. Alternatively, you can add in 2-3 tbsp. of vegetable broth.
4. Add in the mushrooms with some salt and pepper to taste and allow the mushrooms to sweat and cook down for a good 7 minutes.
5. Add in the remaining garlic cloves and shallot along with the celery, leaks, parsley, thyme, rosemary, sage and fennel seed and cook another 5 minutes. Still on medium to medium-high heat.
6. Lightly butter a 9 x 13 baking dish to avoid the mixture sticking to the dish as much.
7. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cranberries, mushroom mixture, and cubed bread. Drizzle in the 2 cups of vegetable broth and gently stir until well combined.
8. Pour the mixture into the buttered baking dish.
9. Bake covered at 375 for 25 minutes, and then uncovered for another 20-25 minutes to crisp up the top.
10. Let it sit for 5 minutes once out of the oven and then serve promptly. Enjoy!

Riane’s Tidbits

• The butter adds a much richer taste to the mushrooms, but you can omit to take out the fat.
• I use Trader Joe’s organic hearty vegetable broth. If you make your own broth, even better.
• Shallots add a great flavor to stuffing, but you can replace with a medium yellow onion in a pinch.
• Fresh cooked cranberries are bitter, but I like the taste and added color to the stuffing. You can always use dried unsweetened cranberries for a sweeter bite. Omit all together if you wish!

I hope you enjoy it! Grateful you are following along,
