- 3-4 1/2 cups vegetable broth (I used Better Than Bouillon No-Chicken )
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 3/4 tsp salt, or more to taste
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 4 tbsp vegan butter (or olive oil)
- 2 cups (480ml) diced yellow onion (about 2 small or 1 large onion)

- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/3 cup fresh parsley, chopped small

Preparation
Not specified
Cooking
- Dry the breadcrumbs: Preheat the oven to 250°F (120°C) and spread the bread cubes evenly onto two large rimmed baking sheets.
- Place in the oven and bake for about 50-60 minutes, rotating the pans a few times (every 20 minutes).
- Remove from the oven.
- Set aside to cool.
- Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees and make sure one of the racks is in the center of the oven.
- In a large bowl or glass measuring cup, whisk 3 cups (720ml) of the broth with the cornstarch, salt and pepper until combined.
- Set aside.
- In a large skillet, melt the vegan butter over medium heat.
- Add the onion and celery and sauté until translucent and softened, about 5-6 minutes.
- Add the garlic and cook 1 more minute.
- Remove from heat.
- In a very large bowl, add the dried bread crumbs, parsley, sage, thyme and marjoram.
- Now add the onion/celery mixture.
- Give the broth mixture once last whisk and then slowly start drizzling it in to the bowl with the bread and toss immediately.
- Pour in more broth while tossing until the bread is just barely soaked though.
- You don’t want them to be too wet or too dry.
- I used about 4 cups (960ml), but it will depend on the bread you use.
- Add to a greased 9x13-inch (23x33cm) baking dish and spread into an even layer.
- Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes, then remove the foil and cook uncovered for about 20 more minutes.
- If you want it a little more browned on top, broil for just a few minutes but watch carefully so it doesn't burn.
- Enjoy!.
- MAKE AHEAD OPTION: You can prepare the stuffing a day in advance, or longer if you freeze it.
- To make ahead, dry out the bread, sauté the vegetables and mix it all together with the broth/cornstarch mixture + herbs.
- Place in the casserole dish, then cover and refrigerate for a day, or freeze for longer.
- When ready to serve, pop it in the oven and bake as directed, plus a little extra time especially if you froze it.
