Use your hands to roll the mixture into golf ball-sized portions. You can go smaller or bigger depending on how you like them — just keep the size consistent for even cooking.
4. Cook to Crispy Perfection
Oven Method:
Place the balls on a greased baking sheet. Lightly spray with olive oil and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden and heated through.
Air Fryer Method:
Place the balls in your air fryer basket in a single layer. Give them a light mist of olive oil spray and cook for about 15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway for even browning.
Stovetop Method (Extra Crispy):
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the balls for 2–3 minutes per side, or until crisp and golden all over.
Serving Suggestions:
These savory bites are perfect with a side of cranberry sauce, a drizzle of turkey gravy, or even some honey mustard for a tangy twist. They make a delicious appetizer, snack, or even a full meal!
Tip:
These also freeze well! Make a double batch and save some for later — just pop them in the oven or air fryer when you need a quick bite.
