Step 2: Shape the Balls

Using your hands or a cookie scoop:

  • Take a small handful of the mixture
  • Roll it into a ball about the size of a golf ball
  • Place it on a lined baking sheet

Repeat until all the mixture is used.
You should get about 12–16 stuffing balls depending on size.


Step 3: Chill (Optional but Helpful)

Refrigerate the balls for 10–15 minutes.
This helps them hold their shape better while cooking.


Step 4: Bake or Air Fry

Option A — Bake

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C)
  • Lightly spray the stuffing balls with oil
  • Bake for 20–25 minutes, turning halfway, until golden brown

Option B — Air Fry

  • Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C)
  • Spray the basket lightly
  • Air fry for 10–12 minutes, shaking halfway

They should be crispy on the outside and hot in the center.


Step 5: Serve with Your Favorite Dip

Serve warm with:

  • hot turkey gravy
  • cranberry sauce
  • creamy ranch
  • garlic aioli
  • spicy mayo

These dips elevate the flavor and make each bite even more satisfying.
