Instructions
1
I let my cubed bread sit out for 1-2 days to dry out but if you only have fresh bread or the loaf isn't very dry, place the cubed bread on a baking sheet at bake at 400F for about 15 minutes.
2
Lower the oven temp to 350F. Meanwhile, melt butter in a saute pan. Stir in onion, celery, and carrots. Let cook to soften, stirring occasionally. Season with oregano, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper.
3
Transfer cubed bread to a large bowl and pour cooked veggie mixture on top. Stir well to combine.
4
Pour the vegetable stock into the bowl and give everything a big stir, making sure each piece of bread is coated.
5
Transfer the mixture to a prepared casserole dish and bake for about 30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and serve warm.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Toast Your Bread Cubes First 🍞Spread bread cubes on a baking sheet and toast at 375°F for 8-10 minutes until golden and slightly dried out; this prevents a soggy casserole and enhances the bread's nutty flavor.
- Sauté Vegetables Until Caramelized 🧅Cook diced onions, celery, and carrots in plant-based butter over medium heat for 8-10 minutes until they develop golden edges; this builds deep, savory flavors that make the entire casserole more complex.
- Warm Your Stock Before Adding 🔥Heat the vegetable stock separately and add it warm to the bread mixture; this helps the bread absorb liquid more evenly and prevents the casserole from cooking unevenly.
- Don't Overmix the Bread Mixture 🤲Gently fold ingredients together until just combined to maintain bread cube texture and structure; aggressive mixing creates a dense, gummy casserole rather than a light, fluffy one.
- Let It Rest Before Serving ⏱️Allow the casserole to sit for 10 minutes after removing from the oven so it sets slightly and becomes easier to serve while remaining moist and cohesive.
