Savory meatballs blended with parmesan, garlic, and Italian seasoning baked for a juicy finish.

# What You'll Need:

→ Meat

01 - 2 pounds lean ground beef

→ Binders and Fillers

02 - 1 large egg
03 - ½ cup Italian-style breadcrumbs
04 - ¼ cup whole milk

→ Vegetables & Aromatics

05 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
06 - ¼ cup white onion, finely diced

→ Cheese & Seasoning

07 - ½ cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
08 - 28 grams dry ranch seasoning mix

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line one large or two small baking sheets with parchment paper.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly combine ground beef, egg, breadcrumbs, milk, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, diced onion, and ranch seasoning until uniform in texture.
03 - Using a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop, portion the mixture and shape into tight balls with your hands. Arrange the meatballs about one inch apart on the lined baking sheets.
04 - Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
05 - Remove the baking sheets from the oven and carefully turn each meatball over to ensure even cooking.
06 - Return the meatballs to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes until cooked through and browned.
07 - Line a separate baking sheet with paper towels. Transfer the meatballs onto it to absorb excess grease.
08 - Transfer meatballs to a serving platter and serve hot.

# Additional Notes:

01 - For optimal texture, avoid overmixing the meat mixture to keep the meatballs tender.
