How to Make Leftover Turkey Stuffing Balls
Step 1: Prep and Preheat
Preheat oven to 375°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Mix the Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine stuffing, mashed potatoes, and chopped turkey. Season with salt and pepper, then mix thoroughly until everything is evenly distributed.
Step 3: Adjust the Texture
Test the mixture by squeezing a handful. If it feels too wet or doesn’t hold its shape, gradually add panko breadcrumbs until it’s firm enough to roll.
Step 4: Form the Balls
Scoop portions of the mixture and roll into balls about the size of a golf ball. Place them on the prepared baking sheet with a little space between each.
Step 5: Bake Until Crispy
Bake for 10–15 minutes until the exterior is lightly browned and the centers are heated through.
Step 6: Serve
Serve hot. Drizzle with warm gravy for a “smothered” style or serve gravy on the side for dipping.
