Instructions:
- Prep the Meat Mixture:
- In a bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, chopped pickles, shredded cheddar cheese, Dijon mustard, sugar-free ketchup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
- Form the Balls:
- Take portions of the mixture and roll them into golf ball-sized balls. The mixture should make approximately 12-16 balls, depending on the size you prefer.
- Optional Breading:
- If you’d like a crispy coating, mix almond flour, grated parmesan cheese, paprika, salt, and black pepper in a shallow bowl.
- Dip each cheeseburger ball into beaten egg and then coat it with the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
- Cook the Cheeseburger Balls:
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a bit of cooking oil.
- Place the cheeseburger balls in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they’re cooked through and browned.
- If using, place a small slice of cheese on top of each ball during the last minute of cooking to melt.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve the Epic Keto Cheeseburger Balls hot, either on their own or with your favorite keto-friendly condiments or dipping sauces.
These Cheeseburger Balls are a fun and creative way to enjoy the flavors of a classic cheeseburger while keeping your meal keto-friendly. You can customize the recipe by adding other keto-approved toppings or adjusting the seasonings according to your preferences.
