Ingredients

Sauce

Meatballs

Instructions

Sauce

  • Mix everything together and set aside.

Meatballs

  • Gently mix above meatball ingredients until just combined. Using a small cookie scoop, form meatballs.
  • Place formed meatballs on parchment lined baking sheet at 400° for 20 minutes.
  • Remove meatballs from oven, brush on sauce. Return to oven for approximately 15-20 or until the meatballs are cooked through. 
Serve with any remaining sauce and enjoy!

Notes

For the sweetener, use what you prefer. I use maply syrup or brown sugar in general. A bit of honey, regular sugar, or even monk fruit would be great. Start with a tablespoon and go up from there. Some people (me) like a meatloaf sauce situation to be more tangy/savory, some like it sweeter. Make it your way!
