Keto Stuffing Recipe with Sausage
A super delicious keto stuffing recipe with Italian sausage no one would know is low carb! We show you how to turn keto bread into breadcrumbs, and then toss them with cooked sausage, low carb veggies, and seasoning before baking.
Ingredients
- ½ loaf keto bread like Franz
- 1 lb mild Italian sausage
- 1 medium onion diced
- 4. celery stalks cut into ¼" slices
- 1 tablespoon dried Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon dried poultry seasoning
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ¼ cups turkey or chicken broth
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 3 tablespoon butter
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 250 F. Cut the keto bread into ½" cubes. Spread the bread cubes on a large rimmed baking sheet (ours was 13"x18"). Bake the bread cubes for 30 minutes until they're totally dried out and crisp. Remove them from the oven and set them aside. Turn the oven up to 350F.
- While you're making the keto bread cubes, continue with the rest of the recipe. Heat a large skillet on the stove on medium heat. Brown the Italian sausage, remove it with a slotted spoon to leave some grease in the skillet and set it aside in a large bowl.
- Add the onions and celery to the skillet and cook them until softened, for about 3-4 minutes.
- Add 4 cups of dried bread cubes and cooked onions and celery to the large bowl with the sausage. Sprinkle with the dried Italian seasoning and dried poultry seasoning.
- In a small bowl, combine the broth, eggs, salt, and pepper. Pour this mix over the sausage stuffing ingredients and combine.
- Generously butter a 9x9 or 11x7 casserole dish. Add the stuffing mix to the pan and dot the casserole with the rest of the butter.
- Bake in a 350 F oven for 50 minutes or until the stuffing is cooked and heated through and the top has a nice golden crust. Tent with foil if it's starting to get too brown during cooking. Enjoy! Serve with your favorite Thanksgiving recipes like turkey, pureed cauliflower, and keto cranberry sauce.
Notes
You need a total of 4 cups of dried bread cubes for the recipe. If you have leftovers, you can crush them to use as keto breadcrumbs.
We used Franz brand keto bread, any brand of your favorite ketogenic bread should work for the recipe.
Instead of the dried seasonings, you can use about ¼ cup of mixed fresh herbs. Some suggestions are parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. You can often buy them bundled together in the fresh herb section around Thanksgiving.
