Learn how to make delicious Cranberry Turkey Stuffing Balls. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 cup dried cranberries, chopped
  • 2 cups prepared stuffing mix
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Feel free to substitute dried cranberries with fresh ones if you prefer a more tart flavor. You can also swap ground turkey for chicken or even a plant-based alternative if you’re exploring vegetarian options.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, chopped cranberries, prepared stuffing mix, chicken broth, parsley, olive oil, sage, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  3. Shape the mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls, placing them on the prepared baking sheet. This is a perfect task to involve kids or family members, just like my siblings and I helped my abuela in the kitchen.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the stuffing balls are golden brown and cooked through. The aroma will remind you of holiday gatherings and family warmth.
  5. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
