Ingredients

2 eggs

2 tbsp Italian seasoning

2 tsp chopped fresh basil

1 tsp salt

1 tsp ground black pepper

1 tsp garlic powder

500 g ground beef

1 cup panko bread crumbs

Directions

Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).

In a large bowl, combine eggs, Italian seasoning, basil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Add ground beef and panko bread crumbs; mix thoroughly.

Using a teaspoon, shape the beef mixture into about 40 meatballs (1 1/2-inch in size, slightly smaller than golf balls). Place on ungreased, rimmed baking sheets.

Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the centers, 10 to 15 minutes total, turning halfway through. Use an instant-read thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches at least 70°C (160°F).
