Number Of Ingredients 24

5 cups turkey broth
4 cups cubed cooked turkey
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup chopped carrots
1 cup chopped button mushrooms
1 cup frozen corn, thawed
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ teaspoons ground thyme
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ½ teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon celery seed
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
¾ cup milk
2 large eggs
4 cups leftover stuffing
¼ cup dried cranberries
½ medium onion, chopped
½ stalk celery, chopped
1 ½ teaspoons dried sage
1 ½ teaspoons dried parsley
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine turkey broth, turkey, onion, celery, carrots, mushrooms, corn, garlic, thyme, salt, pepper, basil, celery seed, and red pepper flakes in a 5 1/2-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on High for 4 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • About 30 minutes before soup is done, mix milk and eggs together in a large bowl. Add stuffing; toss until bread soaks up the liquid. Add cranberries, onion, celery, sage, parsley, salt, and pepper; toss until well combined. Scoop dumpling mixture with a large cookie scoop and transfer stuffing balls to the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
  • Serve soup with stuffing dumplings.
