Instructions

Step 1

Put all butter in cooking pot on medium high heat. Add all diced onions and chopped celery.

Step 2

Once onions start to go limp, add salt, pepper and poultry seasoning

Step 3

Stir and cook until soft and opaque. Remove from heat and let cool completely

Step 4

Rip all bread apart into pieces. You can cut it if you want. Up to you. Place in your mixing container and set aside.

Step 5

Preheat oven to 400°

OvenPreheat

Step 6

When onion mixture is completely cool, scramble all your eggs and dump ALL cooled onion mix and eggs over bread chunks and mix well

Step 7

Add broth or stock one box at a time while continously mixing. You want a loose wet mixture but not a soupy mess. This part is depending on many variables and is not an exact science

Step 8

Once mixture has reached the wetness you like (think custardy bread pudding) assess your size and heavily grease your baking dish or dishes.

Step 9

Put in baking dishes allowing a little room for expansion. You can also make in a muffin tin for pre portioned servings

Step 10

Cover with foil and Cook for 1 hour. Insert a knife in center to make sure its not raw. Your going for a souffle-like spongey texture, not mushy. When cooked thru remove foil and return to oven for 15 minutes to brown.
