Step-by-Step Instructions
- Soak fresh breadcrumbs in milk for about 5 minutes until softened. In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, sautéed onion, minced garlic, chopped fresh sage, eggs, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix gently with your hands until just combined.
- Shape the mixture into meatballs, aiming for a diameter of about 1 to 2 inches and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat, add oil, and cook the meatballs in batches for about 5 to 7 minutes, turning occasionally to brown all sides.
- In a separate pot, combine canned pumpkin puree, heavy cream, minced garlic, and more chopped fresh sage over low heat. Stir continuously for about 5 minutes until heated through.
- Gently add the cooked meatballs into the simmering pumpkin sage sauce and stir delicately to coat, allowing them to meld for about 3 to 5 minutes.

Notes
Gentle mixing and uniform sizing are crucial for perfect meatballs. Avoid boiling the sauce when reheating meatballs to prevent separation.
