📝 Instructions

9 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the extra lean ground veal, almond flour, egg, chopped onion, minced garlic, and chopped parsley.

3

Add salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning to the veal mixture. Mix thoroughly with your hands or a spatula until all ingredients are well combined.

4

Shape the mixture into medium-sized meatballs, about 1.5 inches in diameter, which should make approximately 12-15 meatballs.

5

In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the meatballs in batches to avoid overcrowding, and brown them on all sides, about 3 minutes per side.

6

Once all the meatballs are browned, transfer them to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

7

Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until fully cooked through to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).

8

Remove the meatballs from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

9

Serve the Paleo extra lean ground veal meatballs warm, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
