Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 cup 4C bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, 4C bread crumbs, milk, egg, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Gently mix all the ingredients together with your hands until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough meatballs.
- Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.
- Place the meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and lightly browned.
Notes
- Don’t overmix the meat mixture: Overmixing can result in tough meatballs. Mix until just combined.
- Use quality ingredients: High-quality ground beef and fresh 4C bread crumbs make a big difference in the taste and texture of the meatballs.
- Bake, don’t fry: Baking the meatballs helps them retain their moisture and prevents them from becoming greasy.
