Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, grated Parmesan cheese, almond flour, minced garlic, chopped onion, chopped fresh parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until evenly combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can make the meatballs tough.
Using your hands, shape the mixture into balls of about 1.5 inches in diameter and place them on the prepared baking sheet. You should get approximately 20 meatballs.
Drizzle the meatballs with olive oil to help them brown and retain their juiciness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meatballs reaches 165°F (74°C) and they are browned on the outside.
Once cooked, remove the meatballs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve these delicious, juicy turkey meatballs with a side salad or low-carb vegetables for a complete meal.
