Instructions

Preheat the oven: Set the oven to 350°F.
Prepare the breadcrumbs: Place the bread in a food processor and blitz into coarse breadcrumbs. You may need to do this in batches.
Cook the onions and celery: Melt the butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onions and celery and gently sweat them down until soft and just starting to turn light golden, about 15 minutes.
Add garlic and herbs: Add the garlic, sage, and thyme, and continue frying for another 1-2 minutes.
Mix in stock and breadcrumbs: Stir in the vegetable stock, then add the breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper, and mix until fully coated in the butter and stock.
Prepare the baking dish: Spray the baking dish with oil, then pour in the breadcrumb mixture. Use a wooden spoon to gently press down and level off the top.
Bake the stuffing: Liberally spray the top with oil and bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes, or until crisp and deep golden on top.
Rest and serve: Let the stuffing rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Use Day-Old Bread – For the best texture in your stuffing, use bread that is 1-2 days old.
