Turkey Stuffing Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 4 cups dried bread cubes store-bought or homemade
  • ½ cup dried cranberries
  • ½ cup finely chopped celery
  • ½ cup finely chopped onion
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a large bowl, combine the dried bread cubes, dried cranberries, celery, and onion.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the ground turkey, chicken broth, melted butter, beaten egg, sage, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Combine and Form Balls

  • Add the turkey mixture to the bread cube mixture and mix until well combined. The mixture should be slightly moist. If it feels too dry, add a little more chicken broth.
  • Shape the mixture into 1 ½-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake

  • Bake the stuffing balls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are cooked through and golden brown on the outside.

Serve

  • Serve warm as a flavorful side dish or appetizer.
