2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the meatballs until they are browned and cooked through. Once done, remove them from the skillet and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, melt the butter. Stir in the heavy cream, beef broth, and Dijon mustard. Cook until the sauce thickens, creating a rich and creamy gravy.
4. Return the meatballs to the skillet and coat them in the gravy. Let them simmer for a few minutes to absorb all that delicious flavor before serving, garnished with parsley.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some helpful suggestions to ensure your Keto Swedish Meatballs turn out perfectly:

• Don’t overmix the meatball mixture; this can make them tough. Just mix until combined.
• For extra flavor, consider adding minced garlic or onion to the meat mixture.
• If you prefer a thicker gravy, let it simmer a bit longer or add a touch more almond flour to the sauce.
• Feel free to experiment with spices! A pinch of paprika or cayenne can add a nice kick.

How to Serve

These Keto Swedish Meatballs are incredibly versatile! Here are some serving suggestions:

• Serve them over creamy garlic pasta for a comforting meal.

Make Ahead and Storage

If you’re looking to save time, these meatballs can be made ahead of time! Here’s how:

• Prepare the meatballs and cook them as directed. Allow them to cool completely before storing.
• Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To freeze, place the cooked meatballs in a single layer on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer bag. They can be stored for up to 3 months.
• Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop, adding a splash of beef broth to keep them moist.
