Small Batch Leftover Stuffing Muffins Recipes

THANKSGIVING LEFTOVER STUFFING MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray muffin tin cups with cooking spray.
• Combine stuffing, turkey, and corn kernels in a large bowl, and stir gently. If mixture is particularly dry, add 1 tablespoon chicken broth, a little at a time, until mixture is moist, but not mushy. Loosely and equally portion stuffing mixture amongst the 12 muffin cups. Insert a Cheddar cheese cube into the center of each muffin cup.
• Whisk eggs, 2 tablespoons chicken broth, salt, and pepper together in a cup. Divide egg mixture evenly among the cups. The egg mixture will not completely cover the stuffing, but it puffs up when baked.
• Bake in the preheated oven until muffins are browned and slightly crisp on the top, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Allow to cool for about 5 minutes before removing the muffins by running a knife around the edge of each cup. Serve warm with a dollop of cranberry sauce spooned on the top.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place leftover stuffing in a mixing bowl. Stir in beaten egg until evenly combined.
• Scoop 1/2 cup of mixture up and form a patty. Place patty on the parchment lined baking sheet. Repeat 3 more times until you have 4 patties.
• Place baking sheet in the freezer and freeze for at least 1 hour.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place patties in the skillet and cook, undisturbed, for 5 minutes. Carefully flip and cook 5 minutes more or until desired browning is achieved.
