It’s November – man this year has FLOWN by – which means that it’s time for Thanksgiving! I just love Thanksgiving because I feel that it is the official start of the holiday season.
Every year my family has a Thanksgiving feast complete with all of the traditional sides. Ever since I was little, stuffing has always been my absolute favorite. I will never forget my first Thanksgiving with Celiac Disease, I was so sad that I would never be able to indulge in my favorite dish.
Thankfully (pun totally intended 😉), I discovered that gluten free stuffing cubes existed. Taking these and a decades old recipe from my mother’s family cookbook and this recipe was born! This is my absolute favorite gluten free Thanksgiving stuffing recipe even my non gluten free family loves it and I know yours will too!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

So glad to hear you enjoyed this recipe! When using fresh GF bread it should be hard as a rock. It is possible maybe a little too much broth was added as well, when creating this recipe I added a bit too much broth a few times and it became mushy, but still delicious. Hope you try it out again next year, thank you so much for visiting my blog, making my recipe and for your feedback! I greatly appreciate it! – Angela 💜
I made this for Thanksgiving and tasted great. I used GF bread instead and it didn’t seem it held together. I don’t know if Should of Added more broth or the bread wasn’t dried out enough.
Hi Reyanne,
Depending on the loaf size, you could use 1 1/2 to 2 loaves of GF bread. Be sure to leave the loaves out uncovered for a day or two to harden up, then chop into cubes and let harden another day or two until they are hard as rocks. Let me know if you have any other questions!
Thanks for stopping by,
Angela
If wanted to use just Gluten Free bread rather than stuffing mix, how would I change it?
Hi, The Aleia’s Plain stuffing cubes do not contain milk or soy. They do, however, contain egg. Here is the full ingredient list from their website: brown rice flour, white rice flour, potato starch, tapioca flour, brown sugar, Non-GMO canola oil, eggs, potato flour, yeast, guar gum, salt CONTAINS: EGG Thanks for checking out my recipe! -Angela 💜
Aleias plain gluten free stuffing cubes contain milk. Just an FYI since the graphic says dairy & soy free too.
Thank you Claire!
