Equipment

  • 6-inch springform pan
  • Instant Pot
  • trivet

Ingredients

  • cooking spray
  • 1 stick unsalted butter
  • 1 onion, peeled and diced
  • 3 stalks celery, diced
  • 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 12 cups day-old bread, cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces
  • fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  • Spray the inside of the springform pan with cooking spray and set aside.
  • PRESS the SAUTE mode button on the Instant Pot. When HOT appears on the display, add butter and heat with the Instant Pot lid open until it begins to melt.
  • Add onions and celery and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes or until softened. Turn off heat and stir in oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the bread cubes and mix well.
  • Add 1 1/2 cups of broth and gently mix; add additional broth as needed.
  • Transfer the stuffing mixture to the prepared pan and cover with foil. Do not overpack and use two or three pans as needed.
  • Wash the Instant Pot insert, dry, and place back into the device. Pour 1 1/2 cups of water into the bottom of the pot and place the trivet. Place the pan of stuffing on the trivet.
  • Close and lock the lid and set the valve in the SEALING position. Pressure cook on HIGH for 20 minutes.
  • Once the Instant Pot has finished cooking, allow it to naturally release for 5 minutes and then turn the steam valve for a quick release of any remaining pressure.
  • Using pot holders, carefully remove the pan. Remove the foil and fluff the stuffing with a fork before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

To add a toasted, golden top to the stuffing, stick the pan under your oven broiler for a few minutes after cooking.
