- 1 large egg, whisked

Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin to prevent sticking.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked stuffing, chopped turkey, and whisked egg. Stir until the mixture is evenly moistened and holds together slightly when pressed.
- Fill Muffin Tin: Spoon the mixture into the prepared muffin tin, pressing down gently to pack each cup. Fill each cup evenly for uniform muffins.
- Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve with Gravy: Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before removing from the tin. Serve warm with a drizzle of turkey gravy on top, or as a dip on the side for extra flavor.
