Ingredients

cooking spray
1 (8.5 ounce) package cornbread mix (such as Jiffy®)
½ cup creamed corn
⅓ cup whole milk
1 large egg
½ teaspoon ground sage
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 tablespoons whole berry cranberry sauce, divided
2 cups refrigerated mashed potatoes, warmed
½ pound sliced cooked turkey
4 tablespoons hot turkey gravy
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray 6 muffin cups with cooking spray.
Stir cornbread mix, creamed corn, milk, egg, sage, onion powder, salt, and pepper together in a medium mixing bowl. Divide mixture evenly among the muffin cups
Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 17 minutes. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes.
Using a teaspoon measuring spoon, hollow out the center of each cornbread cupcake; reserve scooped out cornbread. Fill each hole with about 2 teaspoons cranberry sauce. Use reserved cornbread to top each hole.
Place mashed potatoes in a resealable plastic bag and snip off 1 corner of the bag. Pipe about 1/3 cup potatoes on top of each cupcake. Place 2 turkey slices on each mound of potatoes, and drizzle each with 2 teaspoons gravy. Serve warm, garnished with a sprinkle of parsley.
