Ingredients
Steps
- 1
Mix cornmeal, flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in egg and buttermilk until just combined.
- 2
Fold in cooled stuffing, celery, onion, sage, and thyme.
- 3
Scoop rounded tablespoons and shape into balls. Spray with oil.
- 4
Air fry at 375°F for 10-12 minutes, turning halfway, until golden brown and crispy.
- 5
Serve hot with cranberry sauce or gravy for dipping.
Tip: Use leftover stuffing from Thanksgiving or boxed stuffing mix. The batter should be thick enough to hold the stuffing — if it's too wet, add more cornmeal. Let them cool a couple minutes so the inside sets.
