Equipment

2 tbsp Sage chopped
2 tbsp Thyme
3/4 cup Dried cranberries https://thetastesoflife.com/cranberry-sauce-with-red-wine/
1 Egg
2 tbsp Garlic minced
3/4 cup Almond flour or bread crumbs
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Black pepper
2 tbsp Olive oil

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix the meatball mixture: In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, garlic, sage, thyme, salt, egg, almond flour, black pepper, and dried cranberries. Mix gently until just combined; overmixing makes them tough.
3. Form the meatballs: Use a small scoop or your hands to shape them into even balls.
4. Bake: Arrange on the baking sheet and bake for about 20-25 minutes, sprinkle with olive oil, and or until golden brown and cooked through.
5. Cool: Cool the meatballs for 5 minutes and mix them gently with cranberry sauce in a bowl.
6. Serve: Plate with warm cranberry sauce for dipping, or drizzle some on top for a glossy finish.
