Need a keto-friendly meal idea the entire family will enjoy!?🍝
You’ve gotta try making these easy and low carb meatballs using almond flour and Parmesan cheese. It’s a really simple crowd-pleasing idea!
Low Carb Keto Parmesan Meatballs
yield: 5 SERVINGS
cook time: 40 MINUTES
total time: 40 MINUTES
The entire family will LOVE these Keto friendly meatballs made with almond flour and Parmesan cheese!
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds ground beef
- 1/2 a fresh onion, chopped
- 3 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
- 3/4 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon dried Oregano
- 1/2 cup warm water
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2
In a mixing bowl, combine ground meat and the rest of the listed ingredients. (I like to use a potato masher.)
3
Roll two inch sized meatballs and place them on a baking pan. (Should yield about 15 meatballs.)
4
Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
5
Take meatballs out of the oven and spoon about a tablespoon of homemade Keto Marinara Sauce, or a sugar-free canned sauce over the meatballs. Sprinkle a small amount of mozzarella cheese over each meatball.
6
Put meatballs back in the oven for 15-20 minutes to melt cheese.
7
Serve over roasted spaghetti squash.
Feel free to improvise the recipe and season them as desired.
I think fresh basil would be nice to use instead of parsley as well.
We doubled this Keto Meatballs recipe to feed our group on the Hip2Save team retreat recently, and it really did turn out to be a delicious meal idea to feed a crowd. Melting the cheese and sauce on the meatballs before serving makes it over the top delicious!
This is the recipe we used for the Keto Marinara sauce and we also served baked spaghetti squash for people following a Keto diet, along with regular noodles for those not. We served this all with a fresh salad and everyone was full and happy! 😋

These sound great! Any suggestions as to what to use to replace Almond flour if there is a nut allergy? Thanks so much!!
Some people use pork rinds instead
Great idea…thanks so much!
I’ve seen coconut flour used in keto meatball recipes as well
Thanks! I will have to get some of that to try in other recipes too!
I just skip the almond flour and use just parmesan cheese when I make mine. I have always made them for my GF daughter and now I eat them that way being Keto. And actually it’s cheaper to skip the almond flour too.
Thanks for the input Amy! 👍
So grateful for the keto recipes you post! Thank you, thank you!!

Keto is the best way to go. I am so happy to find new recipes from you.

That’s great! You’re welcome. Thanks for stopping by today. 😀
Thanks for sharing Keto recipes. Been on Keto since June 1st. Losing weight and so much more energy.
What are the nutrition fact per serving ? And how many meat balls per.
Luv these recipes
Great! Thanks Annette!
Can’t wait to try this. Thanks!
Sure! Enjoy!
Made them last night and they were great. They were just as good as left overs.
That’s great news! Thanks for sharing
Love the Keto recipes!!!
Great! Thanks Michelle
what are the net carbs of these meatballs? new to keto but these sound delish – will omit almond flour
Do you think these would work without the Parmesan? Two of my kiddos don’t like cheese (I know. They’re weird. I have to make pizza without cheese for them).
Yes, definitely able to adjust that part!
I have done it with Mushrooms as a filler before. It is super yummy that way 😀
I just wanted to thank you for sharing this recipe. I made it along with the sauce last night and enjoyed the leftovers today! I’ll be making these again – they were delicious!!
I’m so glad Karen! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Nutritional info would be an awesome addition to the post.
Thanks! We are working on that!
I really appreciate it. I’ve got several excel spreadsheets that help with building weekly meal plans and I understand how much of a pain it can be to flesh out the nutrition info.
what is the nutritional information on the keto meatballs?

This was delicious. I made two matches. I made one batch with small meatballs and one batch with extra large meatballs. Both were equally delicious. I served these at a dinner party last night – 4 non Keto eaters. It was met with a resounding DELICIOUS!
Thanks for giving me a great recipe! It was awesome.
That’s so great!!! Thanks for reporting back 🙂
