Keto Stuffing Recipe
This keto stuffing combines toasted low-carb bread with buttery leeks, celery, savory herbs, and broth for a comforting holiday side dish with a golden top and tender center.
Ingredients
- 4 Slices Keto Bread (or rolls), crumbled
- 3 tablespoon Butter melted
- 1 egg
- 2 stalks Celery chopped
- 1/4 cup Leeks chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon Garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon Italian Blend Seasoning dried
- 1/4 teaspoon Sage
- 1/2 teaspoon each Salt & Pepper
- Olive Oil
- 1/2 teaspoon Celery Seasoning optional
- 1/2 Cup Chicken broth
Instructions
- Heat the oven and place the crumbled keto bread on a baking sheet. Drizzle it with olive oil and bake for about 5 minutes, until the crumbs are lightly browned and feel dry rather than soft. The pieces should look a shade deeper in color and rattle lightly when the pan is moved.
- Warm olive oil in a skillet, then cook the chopped celery, leeks, garlic, Italian blend seasoning, sage, salt, pepper, and optional celery seasoning for 1 to 2 minutes. Stop when the vegetables smell fragrant and the leeks turn translucent without developing dark edges.
- Whisk the egg with the melted butter and chicken broth in a bowl, then stir in the warm vegetable mixture. The liquid should look evenly blended before it is added to the bread.
- Fold the toasted bread crumbs into the seasoned liquid until coated, then transfer the mixture to a baking dish. Keep the crumbs loosely arranged so the casserole retains an airy texture.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake at 350°F for 10 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for 5 minutes more. The edges should gently sizzle and the surface should turn golden and lightly crisp.
- Serve the stuffing while the top is still crisp and the center is warm. Let it stand briefly if needed, until the egg-broth binder feels settled when scooped.
Notes
Bread prep: Toast the crumbled bread until firm and dry before adding the liquid binder to prevent a dense or soggy casserole. Texture tip: Spoon the mixture loosely into the dish rather than packing it down, which allows steam to circulate and keeps the crumb light. Reheating: Warm leftovers gently in the oven, uncovering the dish for the final minutes to restore the crisp surface.
