Savory Gravy-Stuffed Stuffing Muffins for All Occasions

Gravy-Stuffed Stuffing Muffins made approachable with clear cues, pantry staples, and flexible swaps.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups of cubed bread
  • 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup turkey or chicken gravy
  • 1 egg beaten

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat and sauté the diced onions until translucent, about 5 minutes. Then, add the diced celery and cook for another 3 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cubed bread, sautéed onions and celery, sage, thyme, black pepper, and beaten egg. Mix until fully incorporated.
  • Gradually pour in the broth, mixing gently until the bread is just moist but not soggy.
  • Lightly grease a muffin tin with non-stick spray or butter. Fill each muffin cup halfway with the stuffing mixture, then use a teaspoon to add a generous spoonful of gravy to the center.
  • Top each muffin with more stuffing mixture until cups are filled to the brim, pressing gently to compact the mixture.
  • Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the tops are firm to the touch.
  • Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before gently removing them and transferring to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
