  3. Add Herbs and Spices: Stir in sage and black pepper, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
  4. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix crumbled cornbread with sautéed veggies. Pour in vegetable broth until moistened but not soggy.
  5. Add Eggs: Whisk eggs in a separate bowl before folding them into the mixture gently to bind everything together.
  6. Bake: Transfer to a greased baking dish and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes until golden brown on top.

Nutrition

Keywords: For best texture, use day-old cornbread. Fresh bread can become mushy. Customize by adding nuts or dried cranberries for sweetness. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days; reheat at 350°F until warmed through.
