That’s why it starts in our Classic Dairy-Free Thanksgiving Menu. You can use French bread, whole grain bread, cornbread or sourdough. For a special touch, you can add dried cranberries or fresh herbs. Or you can just enjoy it as is for a beloved side dish.

Pingback: Sausage, Apple, and Cranberry Stuffing Recipe (Dairy-Free Version)
An ordinary loaf of bread is not soy-free. Soy-free bread is available, but I live in the woods and I’d have to drive an hour one-way. You can make your own bread, though. That works.
That’s a bummer! Yes, homemade is definitely a great option and quite easy – just patience! We do only homemade – so worth it.
Can you use dried bread crumbs already made?
You can use pre-cubed dried bread, but I wouldn’t use bread crumbs.
