The best way to achieve this is to use a panade. 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.

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.
They are versatile and can be made using beef, pork, poultry or fish. Add different spices and seasonings and the variations are endless. Traditional recipes often have added bread crumbs, making them high in carbs. In our recipes, we have skipped those and created meatballs that are delicious and perfect on low-carb or keto.
