Pro Tips for Perfect Stuffing Balls
- Use Stale Bread: Stale or toasted bread absorbs the broth and butter better, creating the perfect texture.
- Don’t Overmix: Gently combine the ingredients to avoid dense stuffing balls.
- Adjust Moisture: Add more chicken broth if the mixture feels too dry, but avoid making it soggy.
- Make Ahead: Prepare the mixture the night before and bake just before serving.
