Air Fryer Stuffing
Golden brown air fryer stuffing is an easy make ahead side dish for the holiday. This basic stuffing recipe uses fresh celery and onions with simple spices that pairs so well with a roasted turkey or even a weeknight chicken.
Ingredients
- 1 batch stuffing croutons or 10 cups of your favorite brand of stuffing croutons from the store
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter plus 1 tablespoon for greasing the baking dish
- 1 onion diced
- 3 stalks celery diced
- 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 sprinkle black pepper
- 3 cups chicken stock
- 3 eggs
Instructions
- Plan your baking dish that will fit inside your air fryer. Test to be sure it fits. Then rub softened butter all around the inside of the dish and set aside.
- Place the stuffing croutons in a very large mixing bowl.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced celery and onions and stir together. Cook for 5 - 6 minutes or until the onions have softened. Add the poultry seasoning, kosher salt, and black pepper and stir.
- Scrape the softened veggies and all the butter into the mixing bowl with the croutons. Gently toss to coat. All the croutons should be gently moistened by the butter.
- Measure the chicken stock. Crack the eggs into the measuring cup and whisk them together. Pour the liquid over the croutons and gently toss to coat.
- Gently spread the stuffing mixture into your prepared baking dish.
- Preheat the air fryer to 350°F. Bake a 9x13-inch dish for 30 - 35 min or until golden brown on top. See my notes below for other size pans.
