Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to cook up these fabulous meatballs:
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 large egg
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (if you like it spicy)
- 1 cup apple sauce
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
Now, let’s get down to business:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). You want it nice and hot for those meatballs!
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, egg, garlic, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Get in there and mix it up with your hands until it’s well combined.
- Shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake the meatballs for about 20-25 minutes or until they’re cooked through and golden brown.
- While the meatballs are baking, let’s make that glaze. In a small saucepan, whisk together the apple sauce, Dijon mustard, and honey. Heat over medium heat until it just starts to simmer, then remove it from the heat.
- Once the meatballs are done, pour the apple mustard glaze over them and toss to coat. Serve them up warm and watch them disappear!
