Chestnut Stuffing

Chestnut Stuffing

We have served this chestnut stuffing every Thanksgiving for my entire life — that’s a lot of stuffing! It is truly a family tradition. Trust me, this is the best stuffing you’ll ever taste. A big thanks goes out to my Nana, the best cook in the Midwest.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups chestnuts
  • 1 ½ cups butter
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 2 (1 pound) loaves day-old bread, cubed
  • 3 large eggs
  • ¼ cup milk

Directions

Step 1
Cut slits in the surface of chestnuts with a sharp knife. Place chestnuts in a medium saucepan with enough water to cover and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 25 minutes. Drain, peel, and chop.

Step 2
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 3
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in chestnuts, onion, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper, and cook until onions are tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a medium baking dish and mix with cubed bread.

Step 4
Beat together eggs and milk in a small bowl. Drizzle over cubed bread mixture.

Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until the surface is crisp and lightly browned, 30 to 45 minutes.
