Servings: 5
Ingredients
- 2 pounds 1 kilo of ground/minced beef not low fat
- 2 eggs whisked
- 3 tbsp almond flour
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder

- 2 tsp chili powder
- 2 garlic gloves minced
- pinch sea salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F or 190C with fan assist.
- Mix all ingredients for the meatballs. Do not overmix as it will make the meatballs tough.
- Roll into balls, around 1 1/2 inches in diameter. I was able to make 15 meatballs.
- Place into baking dish.
- Make your BBQ sauce once the meatballs are in the oven.
- Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil.
- Turn heat down to low and simmer for 7-9 minutes. Take off the heat once done.
- Bake meatballs for 20-25 mins depending on the oven. Pour BBQ sauce (reserving 1/4 cup for later) over meatballs and cook for an additional 10 mins.
- Once finished you can serve or top with additional sauce.
