- Meatballs:
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/4 cup minced onion
- 1/4 cup minced water chestnuts
- 1/4 cup applesauce (such as Mott's® Natural Applesauce)
- 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard powder (such as Coleman's®)
- 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 1 pound ground turkey
- Sauce:
- 1 cup apple jelly
- 1 cup applesauce (such as Mott's® Natural Applesauce)
- 1/2 cup cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup minced onion
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup chili sauce (such as Heinz®)
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard powder (such as Coleman's®)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, or more to taste
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Mix bread crumbs, egg, 1/4 cup minced onion, water chestnuts, 1/4 cup applesauce, Parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon mustard powder, and poultry seasoning together in a large bowl. Add ground turkey and gently mix together until just-combined.
- Roll turkey mixture into 1 1/2-inch meatballs and place meatballs on prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
