Ingredients

1 lb ground turkey

1/2 cup almond flour

1 egg

1 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp onion powder

salt

2 tbsp sesame oil (this adds an authentic flavor, but if you don’t have you could use olive oil!)

6 tbsp tamari or soy sauce

6 tbsp honey

1 tsp garlic powder

Directions

Set the oven to 400 degrees.

Combine the ground turkey, almond flour, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt in a bowl.

Roll the ground turkey mixture into balls. The mixture should make 12 meatballs.

Place the meatballs on a parchment paper or foil lined baking tray.

Bake for 15-18 minutes. I would just check one of the meatballs to make sure they are cooked through.

While the meatballs are baking combine the tamari, sesame oil, honey, and garlic powder in a pan on medium heat.

Remove the meatballs from the oven and place in the pan.

Simmer the meatballs in the sauce. Flip the meatballs after a few minutes. Continue to simmer until the meatballs are browned and crisped to your liking and the sauce has thickened a little!

I recommend serving with brown jasmine rice and some stir fry vegetables. Enjoy!
