Ingredients

  • 1 cup gluten-free bread crumbs
  • 2 tbsp minced fresh garlic
  • 2 tbsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tbsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • Sea salt and black pepper
  • ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 lbs lean ground beef
  • 2 tbsp sugar-free ketchup
  • 2 tbsp mustard
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, soak your gluten-free breadcrumbs and spices in unsweetened almond milk for about 5-10 minutes. This step is the secret sauce for keeping your meatballs extra moist and soft.
  • In a large bowl, combine the soaked breadcrumbs, ground beef, sugar-free ketchup, and mustard. Crack in the eggs and mix everything until well combined.
  • Get in there with your hands and roll the mixture into meatballs, about the size of a golf ball. Can also use a cookie scoop to make them even sized meatballs.
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F and bake the meatballs in a single layer for 23-28 minutes, flipping halfway through for even browning.
  • Serve your tender, juicy meatballs with gluten-free spaghetti, zoodles, spaghetti squash or on a salad for a low-carb option.
