Ingredients
- 125 ml (½ cup) butter
- 25 l (9 cups) Belgian bread, cut into small cubes
- 8 slices smoked maple bacon, cut into pieces
- 3 onions, chopped
- 375 ml (1½ cups) celery, diced

- 15 ml (1 tbsp) thyme, chopped
- 60 ml (¼ cup) parsley, chopped
- 2 eggs
- 500 ml (2 cups) chicken stock
- Pepper to taste
Preparation
- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Cook the bread cubes for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are golden‑brown. Set aside on a plate.
- In the same pot, cook the bacon and onions for 4 to 5 minutes until they are golden‑brown.
- Add the celery and garlic. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently until the vegetables are tender.
- Put the bread cubes back into the pot. Add the thyme and parsley. Stir.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and stock. Season with pepper. Add to the pot and stir to fully coat the bread cubes with the egg mixture.
- Grease a 33 cm x 23 cm (13 in. x 9 in.) baking dish and pour the stuffing into it. Smooth out the surface. Place the baking dish in the oven about 40 to 50 minutes before the turkey is done cooking.
