Thanksgiving Bacon Stuffing

Ingredients

• 1 pound bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 cup finely chopped onion
• 1 cup chopped celery
• 2 tablespoons poultry seasoning (such as Bell’s)
• 2 loaves day-old white bread, torn into small pieces
• 2 eggs, beaten

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat until cooked through but still slightly soft, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels, retaining bacon drippings in the skillet.

Melt butter in a separate skillet over medium-high heat; saute onion and celery until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir bacon and poultry seasoning into onion mixture.

Mix onion-bacon mixture and bread pieces together in a large bowl; fold in eggs. Spoon bread mixture into muffin cups.

Bake in the preheated oven until tops are crispy, about 25 minutes.
