Grandma's Famous Cornbread Dressing - a southern staple that has been passed down for generations. A MUST for your Thanksgiving turkey dinner. Cornbread, biscuits, crackers, eggs, celery, onion, sage, poultry seasoning, pepper, and chicken broth. Can make ahead and refrigerate or freezer for later. Makes enough to feed a crowd! Perfect for the holiday meal and leftovers.
You can make the cornbread and biscuits a day or two ahead of time. The dressing is actually better if you use day-old bread.
Can substitute vegetable broth for a vegetarian dish.
If you like sage, feel free to increase the amounts in this casserole. I used half of what the original recipe said to use.
You can cut the recipe in half and bake in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Cut all ingredients in half and use 3 eggs.
You can also freeze one pan of the dressing for later. I like to bake one for Thanksgiving and freeze one for Christmas.
To bake the casserole after freezing, thaw completely and bake as directed.
You can freeze the baked casserole and reheat later. To reheat thaw completely and reheat in the microwave on covered in the oven at 350ºF until warm, approximately 35 to 45 minutes.
