Swedish meatballs simmering in a creamy sauce in a black skillet, ready to be served.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 pound ground pork
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  • In a bowl, mix breadcrumbs, milk, egg, allspice, nutmeg, pepper, and salt. Let sit for 5 minutes to allow the breadcrumbs to absorb the milk.
  • Add the ground beef, ground pork, and onion to the breadcrumb mixture. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  • Form the mixture into 1-inch meatballs. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and brown the meatballs on all sides.
