how long to bake dressing at 375

The baking time for dressing (also known as stuffing) at 375°F (190°C) can vary depending on the size of the dish, the moisture content of the dressing, and personal preference for crispiness. Here are some general guidelines:

* Small dish (8-10 inches square, 2-3 cups of dressing): 25-35 minutes
* Medium dish (9×13 inches, 4-6 cups of dressing): 35-45 minutes
* Large dish (11×15 inches, 8-10 cups of dressing): 45-55 minutes

It’s essential to check the dressing periodically to avoid overcooking. You can do this by:

1. Checking the top: If it’s golden brown and crispy, it’s done.
2. Checking the center: If it’s hot and the bread is no longer soggy, it’s done.
3. Using a thermometer: The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).

If you prefer a crisper top, you can broil the dressing for an additional 2-3 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.

Remember, these times are approximate, and the actual baking time may vary depending on your oven and the specific dressing recipe.
