For a richer flavor, use homemade cornbread or a high-quality cornbread mix with added butter and honey.
Feel free to customize the dressing with additional ingredients such as cooked sausage, cranberries, or pecans.
If using fresh sage, use approximately 2 tablespoons, finely chopped.
Taste and adjust seasoning (salt, pepper, and sage) before baking.
To make ahead, prepare the dressing up to the point of baking, cover tightly, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Add an extra 5-10 minutes to the baking time if baking directly from the refrigerator.
