JODIE'S 3C BREAD



Jodie's 3C Bread image

I have been making this for many years. I started making them in coffee cans and vegetable cans to give as gifts and to send for gifts they are real handy when needing to ship in the mail or Fed-Ex or by UPS. What is real nice about baking in the cans is when you slice them is that they fit in the toaster perfectly or on a party tray beautifully. I love the 3C bread more so because I am not a big fruit cake person. Sometimes I add spiced rum for that special touch.

Provided by Sandra Lee

Time P1DT1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 loaf sourdough bread
1/2 loaf rye bread
4 tablespoons unsalted butter plus more for greasing
1 cup frozen chopped onions
3 stalks celery, chopped
2 medium carrots, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (14-ounce) bag cornbread stuffing
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup turkey gravy
2 large eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
1/2 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Cut the breads into 1-inch cubes and spread them out onto baking sheets. Leave out overnight to get stale. (Alternately, bake them in a 300 degree F oven for 30 minutes to dry them out).
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, add the butter. When it is melted add the onions, celery, and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and let cool a bit.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9 by 13-inch baking dish.
  • Put the bread cubes into a large bowl with the cornbread stuffing and add the cooled vegetables. In a medium bowl, whisk together the broth, gravy, eggs, and poultry seasoning. Pour over the bread and mix; the mixture should be fairly moist but not wet. If it seems to dry, add some more broth. Fill the baking dish with the stuffing and top with the Parmesan. Bake until the top is browned and the stuffing is cooked through, 35 to 40 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will have a big impact on the final product, so make sure to use the best you can find.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately: This is especially important for baking, as even a small difference in the amount of an ingredient can affect the outcome of the recipe.
  • Follow the recipe carefully: Don't skip any steps or substitute ingredients unless you know what you're doing. If you're not sure about something, consult a more experienced baker.
  • Pay attention to the temperature: The temperature of your ingredients and your oven can affect the final product, so make sure to follow the recipe's instructions carefully.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can make the bread tough and dense. Mix it just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: This will help the dough to rise properly and produce a light and airy loaf of bread.
  • Bake the bread in a preheated oven: This will help to ensure that the bread cooks evenly.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.
