Christmas Dressing

This dressing is a bit of work but worth it. I grew up eating this dressing. My grandmother made it, my grandmother's mother made it, my mother made it, and when I had to go GF I was worried I would never eat it for the Holiday's again. However, I attempted it on Thanksgiving and it turned out just as good as the original gluten filled dish. Have fun making it and enjoy your Christmas.

You will need to make homemade buttermilk biscuits and homemade corn bread.

Buttermilk Biscuits

1 1/2 cup Domata Living Flour (you can pick this up at Roman's Pizza also)
1/2 teaspoon of salt
2 1/4 teaspoon Baking powder
*Mix these dry ingredients together well.
One egg beaten
2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
1 cup buttermilk
*Mix wet ingredients before adding them to dry ingredients.

Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix well. Ideal measure is 1/3 cup measuring scoop (ice cream) that you have sprayed with cooking oil or drop by large spoonfuls onto a baking stone or sheet pan. Bake in hot oven 450 degrees F for about 12-15 minutes.

Cornbread

2 tablespoons shortening
2 tsp baking powder
1 egg
2 cups Arrowhead mills Organic Yellow Cornmeal
1 tsp baking soda
1 3/4 cups buttermilk

Put shortening in cast iron skillet in 400 degree F oven. Mix corn meal, baking powder, soda, salt, egg, and buttermilk. Batter should be thick. Add heated shortening to batter and put batter into heated skillet and bake in 400 degree F oven for 25-35 minutes or until brown.

Christmas Dressing

biscuits
cornbread
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
3 celery sticks
1 small onion
sage to sprinkle

Crumble the biscuits and cornbread into a large baking pan. Dice celery and onion, and put into cornbread and biscuit mixture. Crack two eggs into the baking pan, and mix. Add 1 1/2 cups chicken broth, and mix. Then sprinkle sage to taste, and mix. Put into oven for 1 hour (cover with aluminum foil). Stir half way through. Enjoy!

Merry Christmas everyone!
