Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup cooked cranberries (fresh or dried)
- 1/4 cup sage (fresh or dried)
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup vegetable broth
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment.
- In a large bowl, mix bread crumbs, cranberries, sage, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Stir to combine.
- In a small bowl, whisk vegetable broth and melted butter together.
- Pour the wet mix over the dry mix. Stir until everything is evenly moistened.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Use clean hands to form the mixture into 1–1.5 inch balls.
- Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.
Baking
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, turning the balls once halfway through so they brown evenly.
- Let them cool about 5 minutes before serving warm.
Notes
If the mixture feels too dry, add a tablespoon of broth at a time until it holds. If too wet, add a few more bread crumbs. Use damp hands to shape the balls to prevent sticking.
