1-Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheet: Start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly spraying a baking sheet to prevent sticking.

2-Warm and Mix Ingredients: First, warm your mashed potatoes and stuffing to make them easier to handle this helps everything mix smoothly. In a large bowl, combine equal parts of the 3 cups mashed potatoes and 3 cups stuffing with 1 ½ cups shredded turkey. Season with black pepper if you like a little kick, then mix until it’s all blended nicely.

3-Form and Bake Balls: Next, form the mixture into balls by pressing firmly with your hands aim for uniform sizes so they cook evenly. Place them on your prepared baking sheet and pop them into the oven. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until they’re firm and lightly golden. Once done, serve them up with hot gravy on the side, and maybe add cranberry sauce for a sweet twist.

4-Optional Crispier Preparation: For a crispier option, roll the balls in seasoned panko breadcrumbs and pan-fry in butter or olive oil until golden brown. Chilling the balls first can improve their texture, making them hold shape better. You can even cook them in an air fryer by coating in panko, spraying with oil, and setting it to 380 degrees Fahrenheit, flipping halfway through for even crispiness.
