An easy recipe for gluten-free meatballs. These gluten-free meatballs are perfectly spiced with Italian seasonings and baked so they are juicy and tender. The recipe also has a dairy-free option.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup gluten-free bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 3/4 cup milk (Dairy-free use unsweetened almond milk)
  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 2 large eggs, whisked

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil and spray with gluten-free cooking spray.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl stir together the gluten-free breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning, onion powder, salt, nutmeg, and minced garlic. Stir in the milk and let sit for 2-3 minutes. 

  3. 3

    In a large bowl mix together the beef and the eggs. Add the gluten-free bread crumb mixture and mix together to fully combine. Do not overmix the meat or the meatballs will be tough.

  4. 4

    Use a large greased cookie scoop to scoop out the meat and roll into 2" balls. Place on the lined baking sheet and repeat. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and reach 165°F on an instant-read thermometer. Please watch your oven because all ovens are different. 

  5. 5

    Store leftovers in an air-tight container in the refrigerator. Meatballs can also be frozen and reheated and reheated in the oven, microwave or on the stove top.
