Ingredients
  

  • 4 Tbsp Butter
  • 1 Medium Onion Chopped
  • 1/4 Cup Almond Flour
  • 1 Tsp Salt
  • 1 Tsp Pepper
  • 1 Tbsp Allspice

Instructions
 

  • Start by melting 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet, add chopped onion and saute till caramelized. Set aside and let cool.
  • In a medium-size bowl, add ground beef, almond flour, allspice, salt & pepper, cooked onion, and egg. Mix well, form into balls. I used a 1-inch scoop
  • Heat oil in the skillet, cook meatballs till browned, transfer to plate and set aside.
  • Drain excess oil from pan, but do not scrape. You will need the scrapings for flavor.
  • Add remaining butter cook until it begins to brown, add broth, heavy cream and dijon
  • Make a slurry out of the corn starch and 2 tablespoons water(to avoid clumping). Add slurry to the sauce mixture, simmer till thickened.
  • Add meatballs back into the sauce, heat thru. Serve alone or on some mashed cauliflower
