  • 3 cups stuffing mix (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth (or turkey broth)
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped celery
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • Olive oil or cooking spray for baking

Instructions

Let’s dive into the cooking process! I promise it’s straightforward and rewarding. Gather your ingredients, and let’s get started on these delicious Turkey Stuffing Balls.

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked turkey, stuffing mix, chicken broth, onion, celery, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, thyme, sage, black pepper, and salt.
  3. Add the beaten egg to the mixture and stir until everything is well combined. The egg acts as a binder, so don’t skip this step!
  4. Using your hands, form the mixture into balls, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter. You should get around 20-24 balls, depending on the size.
  5. Place the formed balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each one. Lightly spray the tops with olive oil or cooking spray.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the inside is heated through. You want them crispy on the outside but tender on the inside!
  7. Once done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
