Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- ¼ cup onion, diced finely
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp oregano
- ½ tsp ground pepper
- 1 tbsp tapioca flour, or arrowroot powder
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients.
- Once combined, use your hands to form 1.5 inch wide meatballs.
- Place meatballs on parchment lined sheet.
- Then, bake for 15 to 16 minutes or until cooked through.
- Finally, remove from oven and serve.
Notes
- Finely chop parsley and onion.
- Combine meatball mixture until seasonings and onions are uniformly mixed in.
- I highly suggest spraying your hands with nonstick spray before forming meatballs.
- Form meatballs into uniformly sized balls to ensure even cooking.
- Depending on fat content of hamburger, more or less tapioca flour might be needed.
- Bake meatballs for 15 to 16 minutes or until completely cooked through. I usually cut into a meatball to ensure there is no pink inside.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- If you want to freeze these for a later date, make meatballs and freeze before cooking. Then, thaw and bake as written.
