*You could probably use
THM Baking Blend in place of my baking mix, but you may need a few extra tablespoons since my mix is a little drier.
**Masa flour is "sprouted" in a way by the nixtamalization process, so I use it occasionally in small quantities for a corn flavor. You can find Maseca brand very cheaply at Walmart in the ethnic foods aisle. You can try substituting extra baking mix for it, but you probably won't need quite as much baking mix as the masa flour called for. Masa flour is a carb source, but in this amount it stays within THM S guidelines.
- I doubt this would hold up well in a turkey.
- Pre-cooked ground sausage would be a great addition and could even turn this into a main dish!
- Don't have cast iron? Fry the dressing in a regular skillet on the stove (or an electric skillet), then transfer to a baking dish for the oven. You may need to bake longer.
- Feel free to try substituting your own favorite low-carb bread recipe (5-6 cups of cubed bread). For a THM Crossover, sprouted bread cubes could be used instead, but you may need more broth because the bread will be drier.
- This bread recipe is meant to be used in the dressing, not baked and eaten on its own. It's kind of bland on its own, but it holds up well in this dressing. I made it dense on purpose.
