This final Thanksgiving recipe we'd like to share is a Low Carb Stuffing from Four Score Living. This recipe uses Almond Flour. Typically in our program we suggest avoiding nuts, however for this one special occasion meal, we wanted to share an option to avoid traditional grains which lead to inflammation and weight gain. So check it out and let us know what you think!! Serving size is 1/2 cup.
Enjoy and HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all our Friends!! We are SO full of gratitude and appreciation for all of you!!
Low Carb/Keto Stuffing (Serves 16)
INGREDIENTS:
For the almond flour bread cubes:
2 cups almond flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup avocado oil (or oil of choice)
2 tablespoons water
3 large eggs, room temperature
For the stuffing:
¾ cup butter (or dairy-free butter, or oil)
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
4 stalks celery, thinly sliced
1 ½ teaspoons dried thyme leaves
½ teaspoon ground sage
½ teaspoon rosemary
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
1 cup chicken broth (or veggie broth)
INSTRUCTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9X13 jelly roll pan, or glass pan, with parchment paper; set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk almond flour, salt, garlic powder, and baking soda.
Add oil, water, and eggs.
Mix until well combined.
Spoon batter evenly into a 9X13 jelly roll pan (or glass pan) lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the center is set and the edges start to brown. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes.
Once cooled, transfer the parchment paper with the almond bread to a cutting board and cut into 1-inch cubes.
In a large cooking pot over medium heat, melt butter (or oil for a dairy-free option). Add onion and celery and cook until the onion is soft and translucent.
Stir in thyme, sage, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
Add almond bread cubes and stir everything together until the bread cubes are evenly coated. Drizzle broth over the stuffing mixture and toss until well mixed.
Spoon keto stuffing into a 8X8 glass baking pan and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes.
