4 servings
For the meatballs
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
- ½ lb ground pork
- ⅓ cup gluten free breadcrumbs
- ¼ cup whole milk
- 1 large egg
Chef's tipFor each egg, mix 1 tbsp ground flaxseed with 3 tbsp water and let it sit until it thickens. It holds ingredients together but won't make things rise - best in pancakes, muffins, and cookies. - ¼ cup finely grated yellow onion
- ½ tsp ground allspice
- ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
For the gravy
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 cups beef broth
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 1 tsp worcestershire sauce
- salt and pepper, to taste
For serving
- 2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten free breadcrumbs and whole milk. Let stand for 2 minutes until the breadcrumbs absorb the milk and form a paste.

Add the ground beef, ground pork, egg, grated onion, allspice, nutmeg, kosher salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix with your hands until just combined — stop as soon as no streaks of breadcrumb paste remain; overmixing toughens the meatballs.
