In a deep-frying pan, heat the canola oil to 350 degrees or until the oil bubbles when the top part of a wooden spoon handle is inserted into the oil. You need about ½ inch of oil in the pan for frying the bites.
While the oil is heating, beat the two eggs in a small bowl and set aside. Add the panko to another bowl and set aside.
Roll stuffing into tablespoon-sized balls, dip into the egg, and then roll in panko. Carefully add the bites into the frying pan, working in batches of six, and cook for about 3 minutes per side. When nice and golden, remove from the frying pan with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel. Repeat until finished.
Plate the stuffing bites and serve with a side of your favorite prepared cranberry sauce.
*If frying the bites ahead of time and then refrigerating them, reheat them in a 375-degree oven on a sheet pan for 10-15 minutes.
