How to Make Cranberry Meatballs
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground beef, 1/2 lb ground pork, 1 cup fresh cranberries (roughly chopped), 1/2 cup bread crumbs, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon dried sage, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal sections. Roll each section into 15 meatballs (approximately 60 meatballs total).
- Lightly grease a large casserole dish (9x13 inch recommended). Arrange the meatballs in the dish.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup cranberry sauce, 1/2 cup chicken broth, and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard.
- Pour the sauce evenly over the meatballs.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce is bubbly.
- Let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
