Air Fryer Stuffing Balls Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add celery and onion, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Combine bread, parsley, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix in cooked onion and celery. Slowly pour egg into the bowl with one hand while mixing with the other to ensure that the mixture is evenly coated. Repeat with chicken broth and mix everything until well combined. Divide stuffing mixture into 8 equal portions, roll into balls, and place on a plate. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
• Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
• Remove stuffing balls from refrigerator and spray lightly with cooking spray. Place stuffing balls into the air fryer, sprayed side down, without touching one another. Spray the other side lightly.
• Cook in the preheated air fryer for 5 minutes, turn, and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Line a baking sheet with foil paper and lightly grease the foil for easy clean up.
• Heat butter or margarine in a large skillet.
• Add onion and celery and sauté gently until soft.
• Combine remaining ingredients with the celery and onion mixture, adding any variations you like.
• Shape mixture into 8 balls. Dampen hands with cold water if necessary.
• Place stuffing balls on prepared baking sheet.
• Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes or until set.

Steps:

• Open the loaves of bread and allow the bread to get stale for a day.
• Tear the bread into 1-1/2" pieces including the crusts.
• Beat the eggs with the milk and water; sparingly, drizzle this mixture over the bread and mix it in just to moisten.
• Saute the celery, onions, and green pepper in the butter until translucent. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Add the warm celery and butter mixture to the bread.
• Add the parsley and sprinkle in a little rubbed sage.
• Cover lightly with poultry seasoning.
• Gently toss with your hands.
• Gently push the stuffing mixture into the corner of your mixing pan and allow to sit for 30 minutes to absorb the liquid in the bread.
• Form the stuffing into small balls similar to a baseball.
• You may freeze the balls at this point by arranging on a baking sheet and flash freezing.
• When frozen, place stuffing balls in the bread bag wrappers.
• When ready to bake, place balls in a 9 x 13 inch pan with about 1/4" hot broth in the bottom of the pan.
• You can bake them frozen or defrosted, adjust your time accordingly.
• Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30 minutes, basting a few times until browned.

Steps:

• Preheat a 3.5-quart air fryer to 275 degrees F. Add the bread cubes to the air-fryer basket (it's okay if they're not in a single layer). Air-fry until completely dry and lightly golden, tossing halfway through, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon into small pieces, until lightly browned and no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Add the celery, garlic, shallot, sage, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth and cook until warmed through, about 1 minutes, using a wooden spoon to scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Remove from the heat.
• Whisk the eggs in a large bowl, then add the bread cubes and warm sausage mixture. Toss until the bread is nicely saturated and the mixture is well combined.
• Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees F and butter a 6-by-3-inch round baking dish with butter. Transfer the stuffing mixture to the prepared baking dish and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Place the dish in the air-fryer basket, then air-fry until the stuffing is heated through and starting to brown at the edges, about 15 minutes. Remove the foil, then continue to cook until the top is crisp and deep golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes more. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.
