Ingredients

1 slice soft bread

2 tablespoons water

½ lb ground beef

½ lb ground pork

½ cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese

1 egg

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon pepper

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees F according to manufacturer directions.

Step 2

Tear bread into small pieces and place in a food processor or blender. Process until the bread is in fine crumbs and combine with water. Stir and let sit for a few minutes.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine beef, pork, Parmesan, egg, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper and soaked bread until just combined — don't overmix!

Step 4

Shape into 1.5-2" balls (I get 20-24 this way, but you can get up to 30 if you shape them into 1" balls).

Step 5

Lightly grease your air fryer basket with oil spray and fill with meatballs, leave a 1/2" space between them. You will likely need to do a couple of batches.

Step 6

Cook for 7-8 minutes at 400°F, until a meat thermometer inserted in the largest meatball reads a minimum of 160°F. If they are not done, put back in and cook 2 more minutes.

Step 7

Repeat until all meatballs are cooked and serve.
