Honey-Mustard Turkey Meatballs

Taste of Home

I serve this appetizer often during the holidays. It's nice to have a turkey meatball that doesn't taste like you should have used beef. These tangy meatballs can be prepared ahead and frozen, so even drop-in guests can be treated to a hot snack. -Bonnie Durkin, Nescopeck, Pennsylvania

SERVINGS: 10

CATEGORY: Appetizer

METHOD: Baked

TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 30 min.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 3/4 cup crushed butter-flavored crackers
  • 1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 6 tablespoon Dijon mustard, divided
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1-1/4 cups unsweetened pineapple juice
  • 1/4 cup chopped green pepper
  • 2 tablespoons honey

Directions:

In a bowl, combine turkey, egg, cracker crumbs, cheese, onion, ginger and 3 tablespoons mustard. Shape into 30 (1-in.) balls. Place meatballs on a greased rack in a shallow baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until juices run clear; drain.
    In a saucepan, combine the cornstarch and onion powder. Stir in the pineapple juice until smooth. Add the pepper and honey. Bring to a boil; cook and stir 2 minutes or until thickened. Reduce heat; stir in remaining mustard until smooth.
    Brush meatballs with about 1/4 cup sauce and bake 10 minutes longer. Serve remaining sauce as a dip for meatballs. Yield: 2-1/2 dozen.
