Peanut Free Ginger-Scallion Beef Meatballs

These savory, aromatic meatballs pack a serious punch of flavor thanks to double-hit ginger — both fresh and ground — plus garlic, turmeric, and a generous handful of scallions worked right into the meat. The coconut aminos glaze is the real showstopper: tangy from apple cider vinegar, lightly sweet from honey, and thickened with arrowroot until it turns glossy and clings to every meatball. Because the whole recipe leans on pantry-friendly, whole-food ingredients, you never have to squint at a label wondering what's hiding in a bottled sauce. Coconut aminos does a brilliant job standing in for soy-based condiments, delivering that deep, savory depth without any of the usual concerns around shared-facility allergens. Baking the meatballs at high heat keeps things hands-off and gives them a nicely set exterior before they get tossed in that sticky, fragrant glaze. Finish with a scatter of fresh scallion greens and you've got a dish that looks and tastes like it came from a restaurant — no takeout box required.
