Ingredients
Bread Cubes:
8 cups cubed day-old bread (about 1 loaf)
Butter:
1/2 cup unsalted butter
Onion:
1 medium onion, diced
Celery:
2 celery stalks, diced
Garlic:
2 cloves garlic, minced
Poultry Seasoning:
2 teaspoons
Sage:
1 teaspoon dried sage
Salt:
1 teaspoon
Black Pepper:
1/2 teaspoon
Broth:
2 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
Eggs:
2 large eggs, beaten
Parsley:
chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Sauté Vegetables: Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode and melt the butter. Add the diced onion and celery and cook for about 5 minutes, until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant. Turn off sauté mode.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the bread cubes, sautéed vegetables, poultry seasoning, sage, salt, and pepper. Pour in the broth and mix until the bread is evenly moistened. Stir in the beaten eggs until fully incorporated.
- Prepare Instant Pot: Wipe out the Instant Pot insert if needed and grease it lightly. Transfer the stuffing mixture to a greased 7-inch round cake pan that fits inside your Instant Pot. Add 1 cup of water to the Instant Pot and place the trivet inside.
- Cook: Set the pan on the trivet, lock the lid, and set the valve to sealing. Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then do a quick release for any remaining pressure.
- Serve: Carefully remove the pan and let the stuffing rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley.
Notes
- Use a mix of bread like sourdough and French bread for more texture.
- If you like a crispy top, broil the cooked stuffing in the oven for 5 minutes.
