Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, soak fresh breadcrumbs in milk for about 5 minutes, then add the ground turkey, minced garlic, finely chopped onion, fresh sage, eggs, and parmesan cheese. Mix gently until just combined.
- Take a small portion of the mixture and roll it into balls, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter. Shape around 20 meatballs.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil, then carefully place the meatballs in the skillet. Sear for 6-8 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add pumpkin puree, heavy cream, and fresh sage leaves. Stir and heat through for 5 minutes.
- Add the cooked meatballs into the sauce, stirring to coat. Let them simmer for 2-3 minutes before serving.

Notes
Mix gently to avoid tough meatballs. Pan-frying enhances flavor. Prepare meatballs and sauce ahead for quick meals. Avoid drying by soaking breadcrumbs properly.
