Reuben Balls with Spicy Thousand Island Dipping Sauce

Crispy baked Reuben balls filled with corned beef, sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese, served with a zesty spicy Thousand Island dipping sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cooked corned beef, chopped fine
  • 1 cup sauerkraut, squeezed and chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • For the sauce:
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 2 teaspoons relish
  • 1 teaspoon horseradish
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and lightly spray a cake pop pan with cooking spray.
  2. Prepare the dipping sauce by whisking together mayonnaise, ketchup, relish, horseradish, onion powder, and garlic powder. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together egg and oil. Add baking powder, baking soda, salt, caraway seeds, paprika, and flour; whisk until just mixed.
  4. Stir in corned beef, sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese until combined.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture into the prepared cake pop pan, filling cups just over full. Place the top half of the pan and seal with clamps.
  6. Bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Remove the top of the pan, check for browning, and if needed, bake a few more minutes uncovered.
  8. Serve warm with the prepared spicy Thousand Island dipping sauce.

Notes

1. Using a cake pop pan helps create uniform balls that cook evenly. 2. Sauerkraut should be well squeezed to remove excess liquid. 3. For mini muffin pans, liners may be used for easier cleanup but may affect crispiness.
