Time 2h35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for the dish
12 ounces wild mushrooms, sliced
2 scallions, sliced (white and green parts separated)
1 large shallot, finely chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup brandy (optional)
6 large eggs
2 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
1 clove garlic, grated
12 cups 3/4-inch cubes stale crusty white bread (about 14 ounces)
1 1/4 cups grated fontina cheese (about 4 ounces)
1 1/4 cups grated sharp white cheddar cheese (about 4 ounces)
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, about 6 minutes. Push the mushrooms to one side of the skillet and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, then add the scallion whites, shallot, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the shallot is softened, about 3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and carefully add the brandy. Return to the heat and cook until the pan is dry, about 30 seconds. Let cool slightly.
  • Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, chicken broth, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Stir in the bread cubes, mushroom mixture, 1 cup each fontina and cheddar, the scallion greens and parsley. Let sit 30 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the egg mixture.
  • Butter a 3-quart baking dish. Add the stuffing and top with the remaining 1/4 cup each fontina and cheddar. Bake until golden brown, about 1 hour. Let sit about 20 minutes before serving.

This stuffing was easy to make and tasted delicious. I used a mix of white and cremini mushrooms, and I added a little bit of garlic and onion powder for extra flavor.

I'm not a big fan of mushrooms, but I really enjoyed this stuffing. The cheese and herbs balanced out the mushroom flavor perfectly.

This stuffing was good, but not great. I think I would prefer a stuffing with more bread and less mushrooms.

I followed the recipe exactly and the stuffing turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This stuffing was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more herbs and spices next time.

I've made this stuffing recipe for years, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of cheese, mushrooms, and herbs is perfect. I usually add a little bit of sausage or bacon for extra flavor.
