Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, stir together the almond flour with Italian seasoning and sea salt.
- In a large bowl, combine the sausage, turkey, pepperoni, almond flour combo, egg, and parmesan cheese (if using). Using your hands, mix well so everything is well incorporated.
- Using a spoon or cookie scoop, form the mixture into 2 inch round balls. Place on the baking sheet (they can be very close together so the meatballs all fit).
- Transfer to the oven and bake for 17-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown on top.
- Serve hot with marinara sauce for dipping.
Notes
You can also use nut crumbs (Italian flavor) in place of the almond flour mixture.
