Instructions
Creating these delightful Cranberry Turkey Stuffing Balls can be quick and fun if you follow these straightforward steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly.
2. Sauté the Vegetables: In a skillet, heat a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic; sauté until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
3. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, sautéed onion and garlic, chopped cranberries, diced celery, breadcrumbs, thyme, sage, salt, and black pepper.
4. Add Eggs and Broth: Incorporate the eggs and chicken broth into the mixture, stirring until everything is well combined and sticky.
5. Shape the Mixture: Using your hands, shape the mixture into balls approximately 1 to 1½ inches in diameter, placing them on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure to leave some space between each ball.
6. Drizzle with Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle a little olive oil on top of each stuffing ball to help them brown.
7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the balls are golden brown and cooked through.
8. Cool Slightly: Once out of the oven, let the stuffing balls cool for a few minutes before serving.
