Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef 80/20 lean-to-fat ratio
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup finely diced onion
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine all meatball ingredients. Mix gently with your hands until just combined - avoid overmixing to keep the meatballs tender.
  • Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs (about 24 total) and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until cooked through.
  • While the meatballs are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together all glaze ingredients in a medium saucepan.
  • Simmer the glaze over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
  • Once the meatballs are done, transfer them to the saucepan with the glaze and gently toss to coat evenly.
