GRANDMA DOT'S STUFFING BALLS



Grandma Dot's Stuffing Balls image

This is my must-have recipe for Thanksgiving, passed down to me by my grandmother. These delicious stuffing balls are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. She always used white bread for this recipe, but I like to use a nutty whole wheat bread for a little extra flavor.

BASIC STUFFING BALLS WITH VARIATIONS



Basic Stuffing Balls With Variations image

These stuffing balls are a good side dish with poultry and pork dishes. For an appetizer, make the stuffing balls smaller, reduce the baking time accordingly, and serve them with homemade or purchased cranberry relish for dipping. If baking the stuffing balls with a meat dish, place stuffing balls in the oven for the final 30 minutes of cooking. You can use other breads too. I usually use good quality homebaked-style plain white bread and stuffing bread when it is available. You can use up odds and ends of white bread, brown bread, rye bread, hot dog buns, and rolls for this recipe too. Adjust the seasonings to suit your tastes. Add one cup chopped apples, raisins, or cranberries for a fruit stuffing, or add one cup of chopped walnuts or pecans. The variations are endless. You may need to add a little more chicken broth, just enough to hold the stuffing balls together. Use canned broth or dissolve a couple teaspoons soup base mix in warm water. Garnish chicken or pork dishes with the stuffing balls and grilled bacon rolls. To make the bacon rolls: Cut bacon strips in half; roll them up and secure with a toothpick; and grill or fry until well done; Drain on paper towels.

STUFFING BALLS



Stuffing Balls image

This is an heirloom recipe made by many members of my family. It can be made ahead of the holidays and the balls frozen. One less job at the end. We always formed the stuffing into balls so they were easy to serve individually, easy to grab a cold stuffing ball as leftovers. My Grandma made extra to freeze and use for stuffed chicken breasts later. Grandma always said to try and get a little bit (a speck) of poultry seasoning on each piece of bread. If you like to stuff a bird with it, just place the stuffing balls in the cavity loosely. Unsure of yield. Times do not allow for day of bread getting stale. I always mix mine in a large roasting pan.

Time 1h

Yield 1 batch

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 loaves white bread
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1 cup water
1/4 cup butter
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
1 small green pepper, chopped
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
2 teaspoons ground sage
1 1/2-2 teaspoons poultry seasoning

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.
