Air Fryer "THANKSGIVING LEFTOVER" CROQUETTES

These are great in an air fryer if you have one but can be traditionally fried as well!


  • 2 cups diced turkey (dark and/or light meat is fine)
  • 2 cups leftover stuffing
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 2 lightly beaten eggs
  • Sea salt and Black pepper
  • Flour
  • Breadcrumbs
  • 2 eggs + 2 tbs water


Roughly food process the turkey and mix into the stuffing. 

Add 1/2 cup of chicken stock and two lightly beaten eggs and mix together with turkey - stuffing mixture.  

Gradually add more chicken stock as needed. You want the mixture to resemble stuffing consistency. Don't let it get too wet.  It will  absorb the liquid as it sits in the refrigerator. Season to taste with sea salt and black pepper.

Refrigerate for 2-3 hours to allow mix to set up. Shape into 2" balls.

In 3 separate bowls, place flour, lightly beaten eggs and water, and breadcrumbs.

Roll the croquettes and coat each in flour, egg, and then with breadcrumbs. Place on a plate or baking tray. Be sure to give each croquette space so it can dry slightly.

Spray each Croquette thoroughly with Oil and place as many as you can fit, leaving a little space between each Croquette, into air fryer basket.  

Cook at 380ยบ for 10 minutes, turning over the Croquettes after 6 minutes.  Keep an eye on the Croquettes, because they might need more time.  

Air Fry until browned. Dip in Warm Gravy and top with Cranberry Sauce
