US Customary - Metric

Ingredients

  • 1 keto cornbread prepared without sweetener
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ½ medium onion chopped
  • ½ cup celery chopped
  • 1 ½ teaspoon ground sage
  • 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups chicken broth as needed
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Crumble the keto cornbread into a large mixing bowl.
  • Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat on the stove.
  • Add the celery and onions to the skillet, and saute until translucent.
  • Stir in the sage and poultry seasoning as well as salt and pepper to taste. Remove from the heat and let cool a bit.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Add the vegetable mixture to the crumbled cornbread. Mix in the eggs and knead with your hands until well combined.
  • Pour in the chicken broth as needed. You want the mixture to be very moist, but you do not want there to be excess liquid in the bottom of the bowl. You may not need all of the broth.
  • Add the mixture to a well greased 9x9 baking dish, and bake for 40 minutes, or until cooked through and golden brown on top.

Notes

Save yourself time and make the cornbread ahead of time. It will stay fresh in the fridge for up to 5 days.
If you use salted butter, don't add as much salt later on.
Grease the baking dish really well with a keto-friendly fat. The best kind is either olive oil or coconut oil or a keto-friendly non-stick spray!
Baked keto cornbread dressing will stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. After about 3 days, the texture will begin to deteriorate, so eat it up as quickly as you can.
