Recipe View Chill or Bake: At this point, you can chill the stuffing for later use. Alternatively, transfer the stuffing to a buttered casserole dish. Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 to 40 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through. (40 minutes)

For a richer flavor, brown the butter before adding the onion and celery.
Add chopped fresh herbs like sage, thyme, or parsley for an extra layer of flavor.
If stuffing a turkey, be sure to stuff it loosely to allow for proper cooking and air circulation. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the turkey reaches a safe internal temperature.
For a crispier topping, sprinkle breadcrumbs or grated Parmesan cheese over the stuffing before baking.
