The struggle is real!

Keto Stuffing Ingredients

This keto stuffing is loaded with vegetables, fresh seasonings and even a bit of seasonal fruit.

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Coconut Flour Breadcrumbs – These breadcrumbs are made using my coconut flour biscuit recipe. These are really easy to prep, so don’t worry.
  • Vegetables – You’ll need a yellow onion, mushrooms, celery stalks, carrots, and green onion.
  • Fruit – This recipe sneaks in one bosc pear and an apple for the perfect hint of sweetness.
  • Seasoning – This recipe uses poultry seasoning, chicken broth, parsley, sage, and thyme. It creates the perfect stuffing seasoning mix that tastes just like the traditional recipes we grew up on.
  • Eggs – You’ll also need seven eggs. I know, it seems like a lot. Four are used in coconut flour biscuits, and three for stuffing mix.

How To Make Keto Stuffing

This recipe is done in four main steps. Here’s an overview of how to make the keto stuffing:

  1. Make Keto Coconut Flour Biscuits – First you’ll need to bake the biscuits. These will become the breadcrumbs for the stuffing. You can see full instructions here.
  2. Stuffing Mixture In Frying Pan – Diced onion, sliced mushrooms, celery stalks, carrots, pear and apple are all sauteed in a skillet, and then seasoned with poultry seasoning.
  3. Stir Together – The breadcrumbs, stir fried vegetables, fresh herbs, eggs, salt and pepper are all tossed together, then poured into a large casserole dish.
  4. Bake Stuffing – The stuffing is then baked for 350°F for 40 minutes.

Time Saving Tips

I’ll be honest, this recipe takes time, but it’s worth it! Consider it a labor of love that your family is going really enjoy. Here are a few tips to help save time.

  • Do The Steps Seperately – This recipe requires 3 main steps. I recommend making the coconut flour biscuits the day before. You can store them in the fridge until you’re ready to make the stuffing. Then chop all the vegetables together at the same time and stir fry them. After that you can mix the ingredients and bake the stuffing just before serving.
  • Chop Veggies All At Once – Wash and chopping the fruits and veggies can take the most time here. It took me about 15 minutes. If you’re prepping other dishes at the same time (for Thanksgiving) then try chopping all of these veggies all at once, stir frying them and storing in the fridge in a bowl until you’re ready to cook the stuffing.

How To Store Keto Stuffing

The entire stuffing can be cooked in advance and stored in the fridge in the casserole dish. Just cover with saran wrap while in the fridge. You can reheat it at 350°F for 20-30 minutes or until heated through.

Leftovers can be store in an airtight glass container and reheated either in the oven or microwave.

More Healthy Holiday Side Dish Recipes

Here are some more holiday side dishes to fill your table!

  • Garlic Green Beans With Bacon – Bacon is cooked in a skillet, then green beans and garlic are sautéed in a small amount of the bacon grease. Everything is tossed together at the last minute for an easy side dish.
  • Stuffed Acorn Squash – Each squash is roasted then stuffed with a ground beef pear mixture that is prepared in a skillet.
  • Roasted Root Vegetables – Butternut squash, sweet potatoes, rutabaga, turnips and brussels sprouts are baked in the oven, then topped with fresh pomegranate seeds.
  • Cinnamon Sweet Potato and Squash – Sweet potato and butternut squash cook nicely together. They both have a hint of sweetness and taste delicious when sprinkled with cinnamon.
  • Fall Harvest Salad With Delicata Squash – Not only is it beautiful (your guests will LOVE it) but it’s also delicious!
