Ingredients

For the Keto Bread Cubes:

12 ounces Keto Bread Cubed and Dried

For the Stuffing:

2 Eggs
1 cup Heavy Cream
1 cup Chicken Stock or Broth I suggest my Homemade Chicken+ Broth.
1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard
1 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
½ teaspoon Dry Mustard
8 ounces Gruyere Shredded
2 ounces Parmesan Grated or shredded
¾ pound Chicken Cooked and Diced. 12 ounces
¼ pound Ham Cooked and Diced. 4 ounces
12 ounces Keto Bread Cubes as noted above

Instructions

For the Keto Bread Cubes (See Recipe Notes for Alternative):

Preheat the oven to 250°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Cut 12 ounces Keto Bread into cubes. For me, this is usually 12 slices of keto bread. Place the cubes on the rimmed baking sheet, toast in the oven for 20 minutes, toss, and then toast them for 20 more minutes. Set them aside.

Making the Stuffing:

Using a stand mixer or large bowl and hand mixer, beat 2 Eggs (jumbo), 1 cup Heavy Cream, 1 cup Chicken Stock or Broth, 1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard, 1 teaspoon Ground Black Pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon Dry Mustard. Mix until thoroughly combined.

Fold in ¾ pound Chicken (cooked and diced), ¼ pound Ham (cooked and diced), and the dried Keto Bread Cubes. Make sure everything is evenly distributed and coated.

Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray and pour in the mixture.
Refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
Remove the casserole dish from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before baking and preheat the oven to 325°F.
Bake at 325°F for 1 hour. After the first 40 minutes, cover the dish with aluminum foil and continue baking for the remaining 20 minutes or until cooked through. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
Serve warm.

Notes

Alternative Keto Bread Cubes
- If you either can’t find or do not want to use store bought keto bread for your Keto Bread Cubes, I suggest making this Keto Cheese Bread from All Day I Dream About Food.
  - Once it’s baked, allow it to cool, cube it, and then dry it in the oven on a rimmed baking sheet like you would for the store bought keto bread.
    - For this recipe, I would use all of the Cheesy Keto Bread from 1 recipe.
