Prepare the Oven
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a large baking dish or casserole dish with butter.
-
Sauté Vegetables
-
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and celery, cooking until softened (about 8-10 minutes).
-
Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Add the chopped sage, thyme, and parsley, stirring well.
-
Combine Bread and Broth
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crumbled cornbread and cubed bread. Pour the cooked vegetables and herbs over the bread mixture and toss to combine.
-
Gradually add the broth, stirring gently until the bread is moistened but not soggy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Bake the Stuffing
-
Transfer the stuffing mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
-
Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the top is golden and crispy.
-
Serve and Enjoy
-
Serve warm as a side dish. The stuffing should be moist inside with a crunchy top layer, full of savory herb flavors.
