The holidays wouldn't have been the same in my family without cornbread dressing. The key to this recipe is using plenty of chicken broth. This is also a very versatile dish and is great to use with chopped leftover roast or chicken mixed right in as a casserole.

How To Make cornbread dressing

  • Step 1
    Mix your cooking oil, cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, milk and one beaten egg together well.
  • Step 2
    Pour into a greased baking dish and bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool.
  • Step 3
    Boil your giblets until cooked and chop (if you are using them in your recipe). Saute your green onion, bell pepper, and celery until wilted.
  • Step 4
    Crumble your cooled cornbread into a large mixing bowl and add your sauteed vegetables, 2 beaten eggs, 3 chopped hard boiled eggs, and enough chicken broth so that your mixture is very soupy.
  • Step 5
    Season the mixture to taste. I use salt, pepper, red pepper, & garlic powder generously. If you have access to any type of Cajun seasoning all of these ingredients are in one container.
