Prep: 15 minutes
Cook: 45 minutes
Yields: 4 servings
Grandma Prudy’s Swedish Meatballs are a family tradition that will become a staple in your household too!
Imagine tender meatballs made with a mix of ground beef and pork, torn white bread, milk, and special seasonings like nutmeg and allspice. These babies are then fried to perfection and served in a rich, creamy brown gravy made with butter, beef broth, and cream. Yum!
The secret to these super soft meatballs is using bread and milk, which brings in a lot of moisture. And don’t even get me started on the flavor of fresh nutmeg – it’s a game-changer!
Traditionally, Swedish meatballs are served with lingonberry preserves, boiled or mashed potatoes, and pickled cucumbers. But feel free to get creative and serve them with your favorite sides!
To make these meatballs, start by mixing all the ingredients together until just combined. Don’t overmix! Then, use a cookie scoop to portion
