Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Whether you prefer your meatballs baked or fried, my keto low carb meatballs recipe produces the best Italian meatballs which are tender just like mom’s. Gluten-free and great for keto diets, too. Add the beef and pork to a medium bowl and break up into smaller chunks, aiming for an even mix.
A panade is a paste of bread or bread crumbs (sometimes cookies, crackers, and cake) soaked in liquid. It lends tenderness and moisture to ground meat mixtures like meatloaf and meatballs. Low carb meatballs do not use bread or bread crumbs to make a panade. I sometimes add finely grated zucchini to my low carb meatballs to add moisture.
In a large bowl, stir together the grated Parmesan cheese, almond flour, Italian seasoning, sea salt, and black pepper. Whisk in the milk, grated onion, egg, garlic, and fresh parsley. Let the mixture sit for a couple of minutes. Mix in the ground beef using your hands, until just incorporated. (Don't over-mix to avoid tough meatballs.)
