In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, almond flour, eggs, minced onion, and minced garlic.
Add the parsley, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly using your hands or a wooden spoon until the ingredients are well incorporated.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a small, round patty about 1 cm thick.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches if necessary.
Cook each patty for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and fully cooked through (internal temperature of 160Β°F/71Β°C).
Remove the cooked patties from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serve warm with your favorite side dishes, such as a fresh green salad, roasted vegetables, or tomato salsa.
