Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-x-13-x-2-inch baking dish
- 2. Place the bread cubes on a large baking sheet and toast in the oven for 30 minutes, turning once after 15 minutes, until lightly brown. Set aside to cool. Raise the oven temperature to 450 degrees.
- 3. In a medium skillet saute the onion in the butter until translucent and softened but not browned, about 5 minutes. In a very large bowl, crumble the cornbread, toasted bread cubes and cracker crumbs. Add the onion and eggs and toss with a fork until mixed. Add 3 cups of the broth and mix it well, adding more as needed to make a very moist, but not soupy, dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bake in the prepared pan for 15 minutes, or until slightly browned.
- 4. For the cornbread dressing: preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- 5. Pour 2 tbsp of the oil into a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet and place over medium-high heat. Put the cornmeal in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the cornmeal and add remaining 2 tbsp. oil. With a fork, stir in enough of the buttermilk to make a batter that is thick but can be easily poured into the hot skillet. You may not need all 3 cups.
- 6. Carefully pour the batter into the skillet. The oil will come up around the edges. Use the back of a spoon to smooth this over the top of batter. Continue to heat on the stove top for 1 minute and then transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until browned on top. Immediately turn the cornbread out onto a cooling rack to keep the crust crisp.
GRANDMA'S CORNBREAD DRESSING
Growing up, we didn't have turkey. We had chicken, chopped and baked in my grandmother's dressing. Now we leave out the chicken and keep the cornbread dressing. -Suzanne Mohme, Bastrop, Texas

Steps:
- Sauté celery and onion in butter until soft, and set aside. In a large bowl mix all the ingredients together including the sautéed celery and onion, and mix well. Taste to see if you need to add more broth, salt, butter, or seasonings. Bake in 2 (9x11) greased pans at 325°F for 30 to 40 minutes. Once baked and cooled the dressing can be frozen up to 1 month.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dressing. Fresh cornbread, celery, and onions are all essential.
- Don't overcook the cornbread. It should be slightly moist in the center. Otherwise, the dressing will be dry.
- Season the dressing to taste. Everyone's taste buds are different, so add salt, pepper, and other seasonings until the dressing is just the way you like it.
- Let the dressing rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve the dressing warm. It's best when it's fresh out of the oven.
Conclusion:
Grandma Lizzie's Cornbread Dressing is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover cornbread, and it's always a hit with family and friends. So next time you're looking for a side dish that is both tasty and satisfying, give this recipe a try.
