A keto-friendly take on classic Swedish meatballs, served with creamy cauliflower mash for a comforting and delicious lunch.
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground Beef
- 1/2 lb Ground Pork
- 1/4 cup Almond Flour
- 1 large Egg
- 1/4 cup Heavy Cream
- 1/2 medium Onion
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Beef Broth
- 1 large head Cauliflower
- 4 oz Cream Cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
Instructions
- 1Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 2In a large bowl, combine the 1 lb Ground Beef, 1/2 lb Ground Pork, 1/4 cup Almond Flour, 1 large Egg, 1/4 cup Heavy Cream, the grated 1/2 medium Onion, the minced 2 cloves Garlic, 1/2 teaspoon Salt, and 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper. Mix everything together thoroughly with your hands until it is well combined.
- 3Roll the meat mixture into small meatballs, about 1-inch in diameter.
- 4Place a 12-inch oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add the 2 tablespoons of Butter. Once the butter is melted and shimmering, carefully add the meatballs to the skillet. Brown the meatballs on all sides, which should take about 5-7 minutes.
- 5Pour the 1 cup of Beef Broth into the skillet with the browned meatballs. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the meatballs reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
- 6While the meatballs are baking, prepare the cauliflower mash. Place the large head of Cauliflower into a steamer basket over a pot of boiling water. Steam for 15-20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is very tender when pierced with a fork.
- 7Carefully transfer the steamed cauliflower to a food processor or blender. Add the 4 oz Cream Cheese, 1 tablespoon of the Butter (from the 2 tablespoons listed for browning meatballs), the 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon Salt, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
- 8Serve the baked meatballs spooned over the creamy cauliflower mash.
