Equipment

Ingredients

2 cups stuffing
1½ cups mashed potatoes
1 cups chopped turkey
½ cup gravy
½ cup cranberry sauce

Instructions

Form a ½” layer on the inside of a jumbo silicone muffin liner. Press stuffing up from the bottom of the cup and into the side of the liner to form a cup.
Air fry the stuffing cups in the air fryer basket for 10 minutes at 400°F. Add the turkey, mashed potatoes, and gravy to a large bowl and stir to combine.
Remove the stuffing cups from the air fryer and using a large cream scoop, fill the stuffing cups with one scoop of filling.
Return cups to the air fryer basket and bake for 5 minutes at 350°F, until meat filling is warmed through and stuffing cups are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the stuffing muffins from the air fryer and let cool for 5 minutes. Add dollop of leftover cranberry sauce to the top of the turkey filling. Drizzle with more warmed gravy if desired.

Notes

No air fryer? No problem! Make these in the oven instead.

Just follow the instructions above and place the ingredients bake the stuffing muffins in a preheated 350ºf oven for 25 minutes, until edges are golden and filling is hot.
