In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, oat flour, egg, grated onion, minced garlic, allspice, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Mix with your hands until just combined — the mixture should hold together when pressed but not be overworked.

Roll the mixture into balls about 1 1/2 inches in diameter (roughly 1 heaping tablespoon each), placing them on a plate as you go. You should get about 20–22 meatballs.
