Ingredients

  • 18 Ounces Crusty bread, vegan(about 1 1/2 loaves)
  • 1 Tablespoon Vegan butter, I used Country crock plant butter
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 Large Sweet onions, sliced thin
  • 6 Cloves Garlic, finely chopped
  • 2 Sprigs Fresh Thyme
  • 1 teaspoon Organic cane sugar
  • 2 1/2-3 Cups Vegan beef broth(I used Ocean's Halo brand) or vegetable broth
  • 1 Cup Vegan mozzarella, I used Miyoko's pourable mozzarella
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees(F).
  • Cut the bread into cubes and then spread out evenly on a large sheet pan.
  • Toast in the oven for 10-15 minutes or until they are firm and a little crunchy. Set aside, but leave the oven on.
  • While you toast the bread, get started on the onions. Heat the vegan butter and olive oil on medium high in a large pot.
  • Add the onions, sauté for a few minutes, until the onions are translucent, then reduce heat to medium low.
  • Add the garlic, thyme and sugar. Then a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Continue to sauté the onions, spreading the onions out in the pot for a few minutes, then stirring and spreading back out until the onions are nicely caramelized and golden brown. This will take about 30 minutes.
  • Remove the sprigs of thyme, then pour the vegan beef broth into the pot. Stir to combine.
  • Bring to a simmer, taste the broth and add salt and pepper as needed.
  • Now, pour the bread cubes into the pot. Turn off the heat and fold the bread into the broth making sure the bread has all soaked in the broth. Add a little more broth if you have dry bread left.
  • Pour the stuffing into a 9x9 inch or 13x9 inch baking dish. Cover the top with the vegan mozzarella. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
