Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork sausage, almond flour, Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.
Using your hands or a small ice cream scoop, form the mixture into approximately 1-inch diameter meatballs and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, evenly spaced.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add a batch of meatballs to the skillet and sear on all sides until nicely browned, about 4 to 5 minutes total. Remove and transfer back to the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining meatballs if necessary.
Place the baking sheet with the seared meatballs in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and have reached an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Once done, remove the meatballs from the oven and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm. Enjoy your Keto Hearty Sausage Meatballs as an appetizer or pair with a side salad for a complete meal.
