      03 Method
      • Step 1
        Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
      • Step 2
        Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix well. You want all seasoning ingredients to be evenly spaced throughout the meatballs.
      • Step 3
        Roll each ball into 1-1 1/2 inch balls. (Will make about 40-48 meatballs)
      • Step 4
        Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and place meatballs on the foil. Cook for 25-30 minutes.
      • Step 5
        While the meatballs are cooking, start the cranberry sauce by placing cranberries, sugar, water and orange juice into a medium-sized saucepan over low heat.
      • Step 6
        Once the sugar has completely dissolved turn the heat up to low-medium and let cook for 10 minutes. The cranberries should be soft and begin to burst.
      • Step 7
        Pour cranberry sauce into a food processor and process until mixture is completely smooth.
      • Step 8
        Add the balsamic vinegar and jam and process for another 30 seconds. Once meatballs are done cooking, place them in a medium-sized baking dish and cover completely with cranberry sauce. Toss until all meatballs are coated.
      • Step 9
        Bake for 15-20 minutes. Serve with toothpicks and enjoy!
