For the Cornbread:
1.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Mix flour, sugar, and cornmeal in a large mixing bowl.
2.
In another bowl, whisk eggs with buttermilk and add to dry ingredients. The batter should be as thick as cake batter. Add more buttermilk if it is too dry, or more cornmeal if it is too thin.
3.
Pour oil into a medium-sized cast iron skillet. Heat skillet in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes. Carefully pour the hot oil into the cornbread mixture and stir well.
4.
Pour batter into the hot cast iron skillet and cook until golden brown, about 25 minutes.
For the Southern Sage Cornbread Dressing:
1.
Crumble cornbread and saltines together.
2.
Add remaining ingredients in and stir until well mixed and the liquid has absorbed into the cornbread and crackers. At this point it should be very moist and mushy—close to the consistency of wet sand. If not, add more chicken broth.
3.
Pour into a 9×13 casserole dish.
4.
Bake at 350°F for 1-1.5 hours. Dressing should be set in the middle and golden brown.

Been making dressing for my family for over 50 years. Used this recipe this year and it was delicious. So easy and great having exact measurements. The only change-I puree the celery I order to hide it. Because after all these years my family has no idea they are eating CELERY! Thanks for a great recipe.

The recipe does not match the video. No cream corn listed and no bell pepper added. I am confused..
