Method
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking spray.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add diced onions and cook 5-6 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add ground turkey to skillet, breaking up with wooden spoon. Cook 6-8 minutes until no longer pink and lightly browned, seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Place dried bread cubes in extra-large mixing bowl. Pour chicken broth over bread, tossing gently to coat. Let sit 5 minutes to absorb liquid.
- Add cooked turkey mixture, chopped cranberries, shredded cheese, parsley, sage, remaining melted butter, thyme, and rosemary to the bread mixture.
- Pour beaten eggs over mixture. Use hands or large spoon to mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed and mixture holds together when squeezed.
- Scoop 2-3 tablespoons of mixture and roll between palms to form 2-inch diameter balls. Place on prepared baking sheet with 1 inch spacing.
- Continue forming balls until all mixture is used, yielding approximately 18-20 stuffing balls. Lightly flatten bottom of each ball.
- Bake 25-30 minutes, rotating pan halfway through, until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Remove from oven and let cool 5 minutes on baking sheet before transferring to serving platter.
- Serve warm or at room temperature with cranberry sauce, gravy, or garlic aioli for dipping.
